i've install FROM serial iso BUT i've installed the sti kernel 
and i've paramater console=tty0 ;( 
i've made both serial and sti start from inittab ....
the sti console seem to work but the only think is i don't get login prompt
on sti.
but when i shutdown system message appears on sti console !

i've try 0.9.1 but it failed after "branching kernel" despite a good md5sum 
...
