If you append "-h" to the kfreebsd line in GRUB, it seems to me
(testing with d-i, not a real system) that early userland boot stuff
gets redirected to the serial console. Unless that's some special
handling within d-i, it might work here.
If you use "-D" [dual] you only get kernel messages to serial, the
userland attaches to the main console only. You can combine these
("-h -D") to get kernel messages on both, with early boot stuff on
serial which I think is exactly what you want.
inittab can still spawn getty on ttyv0 or ttyu0 regardless of
these flags.
