Yes, I didn't get anything of that.

So, with ttyS0, with complete command = console=ttyS0,38400,
I get to the boot prompt, where I can't type anything, the keyboard
doesnt respond.

And with complete command = console=ttyS0,38400 init=/bin/sh
The boot process hangs on the first line which is Booting Linux....
and then..nothing. If I tried to type anything with my keyboard at that
time, same result, which is : nothing happens, the keyboard still doesnt
responding at all.

I also tried with a USB<->Serial converter (so, with ttyUSB0 then) and
had the same result without init=/bin/sh, I get to the Buildroot boot
prompt and then cannot login because I can't type anything ; and also
wiith init=/bin/sh where the boot process stops at Booting Linux...and
then nothing happens, even if I type something. Even with ENTER key, the
output doesnt go to the next blank line...

Sigh...
