Try this:
http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/tech-tip-setup-your-linux-server-
use-serial-console
Note the difference between the serial console lines in each example,
and the necessary changes to /boot/grub.conf for monitoring the boot
process through the serical console.
Or this: look at /etc/event.d/serial. I don't know from upstart, but
it seems that it should be automatic if you specify a serial console in
the kernel boot options.
