Actually, I think that that stuff is output to the /dev/console isn't
it? Perhaps a symlink from /dev/console to /dev/ttyS2 would work. Init
may even have some magic parameters you can make use of.
Have you checked the Documentation in /usr/src/linux/Documentation? I
think it's called serial-console.txt or similar.
Hope it helps,
