According to Jessica Clarke this is due to busybox using vt102: https://society.oftrolls.com/@jrtc27@mastodon.social/110459684352427882 > 3. Which other architectures might be impacted if we were to change > that? I'm not sure, and I haven't tested the S40term-linux patch yet.

Which of the two changes (console=tty0 vs S40term-linux patch) is less risky?
