Hi Zander,
That is strange that happened. So I can fix it, can you expand a
little... What "minimal" image did you use? Or if it was the
"netinstall" script, what was the git-sha and what parameters you
called "mk_mmc.sh".
Regards,

This is the commands I used to put the debian netinstall on a flash drive.
git clone git://github.com/RobertCNelson/netinstall.git
cd netinstall
./mk_mmc.sh --mmc /dev/sdb --uboot bone --distro squeeze
I was in a rush because my Beaglebone had just crashed due to a flash failure. It’s my main NAS now and the family can’t live without it!
But I don’t remember doing anything special during the install.
I am using USBSerial for the console but RJ-45 for ethernet.
I may have a chance this weekend to do a test install with another flash drive.
I’ll let you know what happens if I do.
I appreciate the response.

Thanks Zander,
I was guess thinag, and was able to replicate and fix it last night..
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/netinstall/commit/547bf69f7a7e9f2e7416980a41811d465abc8eb0
Basically at some point after my script runs (which is one of the last
scripts to run before reboot), the installer removes a "#" and
replaces ttyS0 with ttyO0... I'm pretty sure its based on the presence
of console=ttyO0.. (so we ended up with two getty lines, the one i
modified and the one the installer did..)
The short, it works now for Squeeze, but I will have to have to retest
wheezy again. 
Regards,
