Description

When booting the installer over serial, often the installer will have "duplicated" output like this:

//bboooott//ccoonnffiigg:: --SS111155220000 --DD

C Co on ns so ol le es s: : i in nt te er rn na al l v vi id de eo o/ /k ke ey yb bo oa ar rd d s se er ri ia al l p po or rt t

I have observed this behavior on the 7100 and 4200, but it may affect other platforms. The problem appears to resolve itself once it gets past the bootloader stage.

Tested on Netgate Installer 1.1

I can confirm the behavior described in the ticket subscription.

Additionally, the color switches from default colors to black-on-black during the bootloader, shortly after the line: //boot//config:: --S115200 --D.

Once the installer starts, it's displayed normally.
