465 If you like to use the MFP serial ports ("Modem1", "Serial1") under
466 Linux, say Y. The driver equally supports all kinds of MFP serial
467 ports and automatically detects whether Serial1 is available.

471 Note for Falcon users: You also have an MFP port, it's just not
472 wired to the outside... But you could use the port under Linux.

588 If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a serial port as the
589 system console (the system console is the device which receives all
590 kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user
591 mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected
592 to that serial port.
593
594 Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
595 (/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
596 you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
597 "console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
598 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
599 kernel at boot time.)
600
601 If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
602 kernel will automatically use the first serial line, /dev/ttyS0, as
603 system console.
604
605 If unsure, say N.
