Hi Leo,

This LGTM, but I was unable to test it because my 'system build' hangs
as reported in bug#26370. Running your commit produced a similar hang
but I think it is not caused by your changes so I reported against the
origin/master commit.

I interpreted your doc to say I should use something like this ...

  (bootloader (grub-configuration (device "/dev/nvme0n1")
				  (serial-speed 115200)
				  (terminal-inputs '(serial console))
				  (terminal-outputs '(console))))


... to produce something like this in my grub config ...

serial --unit=0 --speed=115200
terminal_input serial console; terminal_output console

Does that look right?

If so, it may be nice to include an example like this in the doc.

Once I get the system build working I will test further.

TIA - George
