Since you're posting to the busybox list, I'll assume you're using busybox.

Your console control might be due to the fact that you probably have no 
/dev/c1 device, but I could be wrong.  It might be somewhat related.  If 
you don't know what I mean, your answer is in the documentation of 
busybox.  It's available from the link "Documentation" on busybox.net, 
and is the first response when I blindly put "busybox inittab 
documentation" into google.

I regret if I've missed a previous post that shows you're using busybox 
with a traditional /sbin/init.

Good Luck!
