> [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,115200 It will most likely work if you add "console=tty0" before that in the kernel command line, since VTs work on the display based on what you said. Not entirely sure how to do it on U-Boot side. (The installer should try launching on tty0 regardless of that in the future, the necessary change is already merged to the rootskel package but not released yet.)
