You aren't supposed to get a login screen on the serial line unless
you enabled ttyd0 in /etc/ttys.  For example, the following,

        ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   cons25  on  secure

enables getty on the serial line.  The default in /etc/ttys is for
ttyd? to be marked 'off' (second field from the end).  Change that and
try again.

Hope this helps
