Hi,
If a coreboot compatible motherboard is used and the right
coreboot+plugins flashed, is there a way that can be used to view the
linux terminal console during boot time in order to remotely
debug/troubleshoot any grub level bootup issues (before the SSH or any
other such daemon can load)?
All the solutions I see so far seem to be proprietary to Intel and
require Server motherboards.
Since coreboot has a network debug log sending option, it stands to
reason that it could theoretically connecting a terminal console over
a compatible ethernet card?
Thoughts anyone? Apologies if this has been asked but mailman does not
make it easy to search archives.

I would get a KGPE-D16 or KCMA-D8, install raptor's OpenBMC port and use
grub's serial output connected to the BMC's serial port - all entirely
libre.
Your other choice is using another computer to view the grub serial
output if you don't want to use the two above boards (although I
recommenced getting one as they are the best last owner controlled x86
motherboards)
