Kernel booting problem.

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.

Now the current problem is, I am stuck on, unable to get console. I
got stuck after sshd (I want dropbear daemon on my machine), it seems
sshd got started, but no prompt is displayed.
I think I should get console control. Any ideas.

Which prompt is missing?
Can I assume ssh works?
If the hardware / video terminals aren't starting, I suggest having a
look at your init scripts (that's where getty and friends are started).
