According to the following bug report (which is also where I saw an example using the two above lines in grub.cfg), concurrent output is coming: http://old.nabble.com/-bug--28628--Concurrent-console-and-serial-access-td27186757.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
