Console kernel arguments for Debian bootenvs, expanded by kernel-options-debian

Debian uses tty1 (not tty0) for its VGA virtual terminal, so it requires its own console param. kernel-options-debian expands this param by default — set this to change the console without overriding all kernel options.

The default enables both COM1 serial and VGA, with VGA as the primary console (the last console= listed is the primary).

Common settings:

"console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty1" - COM1 serial + VGA, VGA primary "console=ttyS0,115200" - COM1 serial only "console=ttyS1,115200 console=tty1" - COM2 serial + VGA, VGA primary "console=ttyS1,115200" - COM2 serial only "console=tty1" - VGA only
