/dev/console is there, but the console is actually /dev/ttyS0 :

--snip--
[root at JBMgateway-v50 root]# cat /etc/inittab
::sysinit:/bin/sh /etc/rc
::respawn:/sbin/syslogd -n
::respawn:/sbin/klogd -n
::respawn:/bin/inetd
ttyS0::respawn:/bin/getty 9600 -

[root at JBMgateway-v50 root]#

The Embedded unit only has 1 serial port (usually) and Ethernet, Frame
