Well so... I think in two "solutions":
1) If we select serial bootblocks during sysinst, force /dev/console to be
   used. Instead, if wscons is supported, setup /dev/ttyE0.
2) Make the boot process determine if we are using a serial console or not
   and enable ttyE0 or console accordingly.

It is... well... inconsistant to use /dev/console, /dev/ttyE1, etc. and just
to say wsmoused won't work with this setup ;)

Good reason.
