The linux kernel can be passed multiple "console=" arguments on the
command line. This results in the _last_ one specified being used as
the default. lilo-installer uses the _first_ one when trying to
determine whether to configure lilo for a serial console.
Also, lilo-installer should emit some sort of message when configuring
lilo to use a serial console to prevent suprises.
The following patch addresses these issues.
