Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console

Hi,

While booting, I get the following error/warning message which keeps 
repeating until I press CTRL-C after which the boot process continues 
normally and everything is fine.

Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console

This is a e450 box and I am accessing it through the serial console 
/dev/ttyS0.
In /etc/inittab, I commented out the tty entries

#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 
tty1                                         
#2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 
tty2                                           
#3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 
tty3                                           
#4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 
tty4                                           
#5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 
tty5                                           
#6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6 

and uncommented

T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100

Ideally I would like it to use a monitor when one is plugged in, 
otherwise all the console output should be directed to the serial console.

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
