I can not seem to get login/getty working. Any hints?

I've got linux 2.2.0 booting on an ebsa285 w/ the folowing "features"
        - mounting a root NFS file system. The file system image is titan-II-19990106.
        - The kernel is compiled w/ 
                        CONFIG_SERIAL_21285=y
                        CONFIG_SERIAL_21285_CONSOLE=y
        - The only way I was able to get the open of /dev/console to work
        was to:
                mknod syscons c 5 1
                ln -s syscons console
        - I replaced the mingetty's in etc/inittab w/ 
                getty.1:12345:respawn:/sbin/getty  ttyS0

I get a login prompt but I can not get the tty to respond.
I've tried various arguments at the end of the getty statement to no avail.

Thanks for any clues.
