I have this in grub.conf on one of my servers:

# both serial & regular console
serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1
terminal serial console

i.e. I want the console on both the serial port and the normal console.

Unfortunately, the "Press a key" messages loop endlessly and the server
will not boot without it, thus preventing unattended reboots - how do I
remove that?

We have this in grub.conf

timeout 10
default 0

serial --unit=0 --speed=115200
terminal --timeout=10 console serial

It boots unattended, total delay 20 sec
10 for terminal/serial choice
and an additional 10 for the grub timeout
