then it means that your system is running, but didn't start a shell on the serial console. In order to have the system start a shell on your serial console, you have to go in the Buildroot - configuration, Target options, enable Generic - serial port config, and select the serial port and speed - you would like to use for the shell. This will automatically tune + configuration, System configuration, and modify + Port to run a getty (login prompt) on and + Baudrate to use as appropriate. This will automatically tune the /etc/inittab file of the generated system so that a shell starts on the correct serial port.
