Is there a type of terminal connection which will persist through a reboot,
so that the boot sequence could be seen? Not even sure if there's anything
to see, just suspected that the boot sequence spends some time "waiting on
xyz..." where xyz is probably something I don't need.
No, how could it? When you reboot the system it 'goes away'
completely, when it comes back it might have a different name, have a
different IP address, be running a different OS and not even have an
ssh daemon running (so your terminal wouldn't be able to connect at
all).
As others have posted you can via the J1 serial connection.
It's *possible* to have a serial console (i.e. a 'terminal') on a
Linux system at boot time and it will then show (some of) the shutdown
and reboot sequence but you have to reconfigure the boot files to do
this and it's non-trivial.
This is already done... Just connect up whatever 3.3v serial connector
you prefer and your bootup/shutdown messages are there. I typically
have screen or minicom connected here to see what I've hosed up lately.
