Your analyse of ttys is very well. It was not my answer. All adresses in system.map begin with 0xc... So I think it is the case for ttys too. I found the mistake. It came from my board_device function in struct console(console ->device). It didn't change the value of the parameter int* index. So Linux loaded a tty_structure which was in tiny_ttys[-1] console.h is not very well documented about this.
