No /dev. My brain said 'tty0' but my fingers typed '/dev/tty0'. In lilo.conf I have append="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200" change the speed and serial line as required. tty0 will only work if you compile the kernel for VT console (CONFIG_VT=y and CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y). ttyS0 will only work if you compile the kernel for serial console (CONFIG_SERIAL=y and CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y).
