Otherwise I wouldn't have asked them in the first place. If you don't know the answers either, then it's OK to say: "I don't know". E.g. (given the parameter aliasing we have) will: `earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8 console=tty0' `console=tty0 earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8' do what I expect it to, that is open the UART at 0x3f8 as an early console and then hand it over to the ttyS0 device as respectively a secondary and the primary (/dev/console) regular console? I've skipped options such as baud rates for brevity.
