Do you mean using Linux baremetal?

The UART is owned by Xen and cannot be used by Dom0. Instead we provide a 
para-virtualized console. So console=ttyAMA0,115200n8 should be replaced by 
console=hvc0.

The lack of console=hvc0 might explain this warning and potentially the fact you 
can't access the shell.
