I do it via inetd on my ARM systems. Here are the relevant parts (eg:
I'm only showing parts of these files for brevity):

------- /etc/inittab -------
::sysinit:/bin/ash /etc/rc

------- /etc/rc -------
# start the inetd daemon (for telnet logins)
/sbin/inetd

------- /etc/inetd.conf -------
23	stream	tcp	nowait	root	/sbin/telnetd telnetd -l /bin/login

Assuming you have a working network interface (up, configured, etc.) and
working binaries (init, ash, inetd, login, telnetd) this should work.

You will need some kind of authentication database for login to be
happy.

HTH.
