I boot feisty on Box1 with console=ttyS0,115200 and see all my boot messages in 
minicom on a 2nd box.  So my serial ports and null modem are hooked up.  what do 
  I need to do to get a shell login prompt?

In the ol days, I did this in inittab

#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mgetty /dev/ttyS1 -x 5

now I nave no inittab...  what do I do?
