Run a getty on the serial device (I suppose you're using a serial
port).
Could be that the serial driver changed or that you forgot to compile a
driver for the serial device.


Also , assuming you are using a serial console , check your entries in
the inittab file .
It should look  something like :
ttyS0::respawn:/sbin/getty ttyS0 115200 linux
