Thanks for the replies again. This time the problem is in tty specification. Kernel supports console=tty0 (virtual terminal), where as my inittab has entry ::sysinit:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 vt100. I have to change the ttyS0 to tty0. Once I changed this, I got login prompt. But I do not understand how we tell kernel to use ttyS0 over tty0. Because in kernel config I selected was ttyS0 but it is using tty0. Weird? Thanks, Sri.
