The udev solution will not help with all the existing cases of console=ttyO2,115200. But maybe we just need to translate the cmdline to ttS2 in those cases? Then the udev rules could fix up most of the distro issues, but not all of them.

Yeah the symlinks won't work, think read-only rootfs for example :) > Before I spent time on this proxy-console I would like to hear from Greg > that he is okay with this. Yeah me too.
