Thank you for this. I did 'echo "-h" > /boot.config and then booted
and it showed console messages going to the console. This is 
a result I'm happy with.

What's a bit confusing is 

1. it did this with option 5: Cons set to Video in the beastie menu
2. setting it to Serial in this menu doesn't 'stick' across reboots.
