If I remove console=hvc0 both the boot messages and login prompt show up. Note: the IPMI console I'm looking at is just the local monitor being redirected. It isn't a special device/driver. I'll try what Konrad is suggesting, setting this: console=hvc0 console=tty And will see what happens. It'll be a few hours until I can try it out.
