Dear stable release managers,
I would like to fix a bug in finish-install, which doesn't enable the
serial console on MIPS Swarm machines during installation, as the serial
devices are called duart0 or duart1 instead of tty*. This bug is quite
important to fix as these machines are used as build daemons in Debian,
and thus should be able to be reinstalled easily.
Please consider the diff below for finish-install in stable.
