Thanks Fabio for the reply. This is what my inittab looks like:
# /etc/inittab
#
# Copyright (C) 2001 Erik Andersen <andersen@codepoet.org>
#
# Note: BusyBox init doesn't support runlevels. The runlevels field is
# completely ignored by BusyBox init. If you want runlevels, use
# sysvinit.
#
# Format for each entry: <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process>
#
# id == tty to run on, or empty for /dev/console
# runlevels == ignored
# action == one of sysinit, respawn, askfirst, wait, and once
# process == program to run
# Startup the system
null::sysinit:/bin/mount -t proc proc /proc
null::sysinit:/bin/mount -o remount,rw / # REMOUNT_ROOTFS_RW
null::sysinit:/bin/mkdir -p /dev/pts
null::sysinit:/bin/mkdir -p /dev/shm
null::sysinit:/bin/mount -a
null::sysinit:/bin/hostname -F /etc/hostname
# now run any rc scripts
::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
# Put a getty on the serial port
ttymxc0::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttymxc0 115200 vt100 # GENERIC_SERIAL
# Stuff to do for the 3-finger salute
::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
# Stuff to do before rebooting
null::shutdown:/usr/bin/killall klogd
null::shutdown:/usr/bin/killall syslogd
null::shutdown:/bin/umount -a -r
null::shutdown:/sbin/swapoff -a
Looking at the getty part, it should be working. Does anything look wrong? Here is the last bit of output before the Can't open /dev/ttymxc0: No such file of directory output:

Fabio Estevam said:
Looks like your kernel booted and the rootfs was mounted, but it failed to run sbin/getty or something.
If you use LTIB rootfs for MX53QSB, it should open sbin/getty -L ttymxc0 for you.
