Looks like there is a misconfigured getty running on your modem port (there
should be none at all). Run
ps ax | grep getty
and post the result. If there is a getty process running on your modem
port kill it and try again. *Don't* kill any gettys that are not on ports
with numbers like ttyS2, ttyS3, etc.

This begins to look like an intallation bug. Please post your
/etc/inittab.
