Just guessing here but I wonder whether this has something to do with
not running an initrd ? From initramfs-tools init script :-
#!/bin/sh
mkdir /sys
mkdir /proc
mkdir /tmp
mkdir -p /var/lock
mount -t sysfs none /sys -onodev,noexec,nosuid
mount -t proc none /proc -onodev,noexec,nosuid
# Note that this only becomes /dev on the real filesystem if udev's scripts
# are used; which they will be, but it's worth pointing out
tmpfs_size="10M"
mount -t tmpfs -o size=$tmpfs_size,mode=0755 udev /dev
> /dev/.initramfs-tools
mkdir /dev/.initramfs
mknod /dev/console c 5 1
mknod /dev/null c 1 3
Note the /dev/console.
Sincerely,
Adrian Phillips
