dmesg says your console is on xvc0, but inittab doesn't spawn a login
prompt there. Add something like this on inittab:

co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty xvc0 9600 vt100-nav

or (looking from your ttyS0 example) something like this

co:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L xvc0 9600 vt100

That should display login prompt and enable normal users to log in. To
enable root to login as well, add "xvc0" to /etc/securetty

Fajar
