You must configure serial consoles into the kernel - there is a configuration
option. I think you may also have to give a kernel command like similar to:
console=ttyS0,19200n8
for a 19200, no parity, 8 bits console. Also make sure that /dev/console
has major 5 minor 1:
crw--w--w- 1 root root 5, 1 Feb 3 23:29 /dev/console
