For those who use debian as guest/host or debootstrap to create debians rootfs,
Some time ago I also noticed the same problem using screen( obviusly no problems login via ssh), I investigated a bit and: man 5 securetty # /etc/securetty: list of terminals on which root is allowed to login. On debian is missing tty0 on the list, I add it on the host and on the guest and the login via screen problem got solved.
