Hello,

It would be nice to see following line in syslinux.cfg on rescue
floppy:

   SERIAL 0 9600

(According to syslinux documentation it must be the first directive.)

With this, syslinux gives prompt on the first serial console *too*.
Installation may done without video card and keyboard at all, user can
pass options like console=ttyS0,9600 parameter to kernel.

Gabor
