Here is quick setup of serial console for RedHat 5. It works for other linux distros too.
# grep agetty /etc/inittab
S0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty ttyS0 9600 vt100-nav
# grep SAFE /etc/sysconfig/kudzu
SAFE=yes
# grep ttyS0 /etc/securetty
ttyS0
# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
default=0
timeout=5
hiddenmenu
serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1
terminal --timeout=10 serial console
