Public bug reported:
in maverick, adding the following to the kernel command-line would allow
console messages to be diverted to another system by means of a USB
serial cable:
console=tty console=ttyUSB0,115200n8r
Attempting this with a 2.6.38-8-generic-pae kernel on natty results in a
kernel panic (flashing caps-lock light on my T410 and no console output
at all).
Same results on an Aspire One D260.
