Description

The motherboard in ipp000 supposedly supports console -> serial port
redirection. Please configure this feature and connect a serial terminal.

Determine if

a) the serial console works

b) if vga is still active when serial console redirection is enabled

c) what if any config changes are needed to grub the booting kernel for full
serial console output (ie., disabling the framebuffer support).

The motherboard in ipp000 supposedly supports console -> serial port
redirection. Please configure this feature and connect a serial terminal.

Determine if

a) the serial console works
It somewhat works up until pxe boot process, then stop displaying boot sequence.

b) if vga is still active when serial console redirection is enabled
It acts the same with or without active vga output.

c) what if any config changes are needed to grub the booting kernel for full
serial console output (ie., disabling the framebuffer support).
I appended 'nofb' to the pxeconfig.cfg file ipp000, no luck there.
