Hi Kumar,

I don't really know if i twill help you but I face the same problem some
times ago with Linux 2.6.17.4 and Linux 2.6.19.7.
I fixe the console error just by manually creating the node /dev/console
in the root file system to be mounted.

This device was automatically generated when I was using Linux-2.4.26.

I guess it help

Chris
