Indeed, adding "console=tty0 console=ttyS1,115200" to the
append line in
extlinux.conf, now the serial connection works.
But initial-setup, even if the answers appears in the serial interface,
doesn't work: in reality there is a login screen.
Here you can find a screencast to better understand:
https://alciregi.fedorapeople.org/webm/rpi3serial.webm
Using the hdmi monitor and the keyboard, initial setup works.
Thanks for all the testing Alessio!
With our Beta release already delayed, I think we need to document using
the display to configure initial setup for the Raspberry Pi 3 (which is
what most users will do) and get this fixed for final.
Initial-setup over serial works on all other hardware tested.
