No, that error (cannot find console device 136:1) means that bootlogd
was run from a terminal emulator (xterm or screen or mc or  ... ).
It must be run from a real console device.

Passing console=/dev/console to the kernel is an error. I think the correct
value is /dev/tty0 or /dev/tty1. And bootlogd will use something like this
anyway.

I have another problem with  bootlogd. It gets confused by terminal
control codes (those that make screen output prettier). I'll try to look
at the source and see what can be done.
