Hooking up to a console maybe not so good. Should you want to do some debugs and your
console decides to lock up what then??
I would suggest using the aux with no logging console set. Worst case scenario is
having to login using the console to do what maybe required. Really using the con
should only happen when needed.
Just a thought
