Since there is no keyboard attached to the machine, I would like the machine to be forced to use the serial port as a console. Currently, when the machine boots and I'm on the serial console, I can see everything up to the point when the bootstrap loader begins to load the kernel. From that point on, connecting to the console via a serial connection will show nothing, and will not allow me to log in.
