Regarding the modules I still haven't found something that works for me. However, I assume you guys test on Debian and I am running Devuan, maybe this makes a difference how loading modules in initramfs is handled?
You need "console=ttyS2,1500000 console=tty1" in the append line if you want to have both consoles available. This way you will have default console on screen (as tty1 is mentioned as second parameter which becomes default for Linux). But for the screen to work, modules have to be loaded.
I am testing on Debian. If you have Devuan then you have sysvinit instead of systemd. It is different in most imaginable ways
