[SLUG] Serial Console

["Daron Barndon" <daron.barndon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Guys,

	How advanced is the serial console option in the linux kernel?
At what stage of the boot will traffic start to come through the serial
port? I am investigating replacing several remote Solaris 8 boxes with
linux and I would like to put forward the advantages of a console port
(similar to the Suns).

Thanks

Daron
