How do you setup a serial console in RTP? Do you need to unplug
the keyboard/mouse/monitor?

Thanks,

No, you can have at the same time several keyboard+monitor consoles and

serial console.

First you have to start driver for serial line, devc-ser8250 (probably it
was started at boot time).
Then you have to run shell or login on given device, e.g. on -t/dev/ser2
login

If you are building your boot image, just add these lines to your boot
script:
devc-ser8250
reopen /dev/con2
[+sesion] PATH=:/proc/boot esh
