Hi, Dhanasekar,

I see "console=tty0 console=ttyUSB0,115200n8" in your configuration. 

You might want to check if "ttyUSB0" matches what Linux kernel denotes
 your serial port. 

I am not expert in Linux kernel so not exactly sure how to debug this. A 
possible way may be trying to enable Linux serial output on a known good
BIOS with your board (if there is such a BIOS) first.

Thanks,

- ben
