Looking at "man 5 loader.conf" console gives the impression that only one
console type can be set, but: ./man/loader.efi.8
$ grep -r -E '" ?console"' .
./common/console.c: prefconsole = getenv("console");
./common/console.c: unsetenv("console"); /* we want to
replace this */
./common/console.c: env_setenv("console", EV_VOLATILE, prefconsole,
cons_set,
./common/metadata.c: if (!strcmp(getenv("console"), "comconsole"))
./common/metadata.c: if (!strcmp(getenv("console"), "nullconsole"))
./efi/loader/bootinfo.c: console = getenv("console");
./efi/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "efi,comconsole", 1);
./efi/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "efi", 1);
./efi/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "comconsole", 1);
./efi/loader/main.c: if (strcmp(getenv("console"), "efi") == 0) {
./efi/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "comconsole",
1);
./efi/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "efi
comconsole", 1);
./efi/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "comconsole
efi", 1);
./efi/loader/main.c: printf(" Console: %s (%#x)\n", getenv("console"),
howto);
./forth/support.4th: s" console" getenv
./forth/support.4th: taddr tlen s" console" setenv
./forth/support.4th: taddr swap s" console" setenv
./forth/support.4th: caddr clen s" console" setenv \ restore
console setup
./forth/support.4th: s" console" getenv dup -1 <> if
./forth/support.4th: s" console" getenv
./i386/libi386/bootinfo.c: string = next = strdup(getenv("console"));
./i386/libi386/comconsole.c: cons = getenv("console");
./i386/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "comconsole
vidconsole", 1);
./i386/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "vidconsole
comconsole", 1);
./i386/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "comconsole", 1);
./i386/loader/main.c: setenv("console", "nullconsole", 1);
./lua/core.lua: local c = loader.getenv("console")
./lua/core.lua: local c = loader.getenv("console")
./lua/drawer.lua: local console = loader.getenv("console")
./lua/drawer.lua: loader.setenv("console", c)
./lua/drawer.lua: loader.setenv("console", console)
./userboot/userboot/bootinfo.c: string = next = strdup(getenv("console"));
$ grep -r -E '".console"' .
./forth/support.4th: s" console" getenv
./forth/support.4th: taddr tlen s" console" setenv
./forth/support.4th: taddr swap s" console" setenv
./forth/support.4th: caddr clen s" console" setenv \ restore
console setup
./forth/support.4th: s" console" getenv dup -1 <> if
./forth/support.4th: s" console" getenv
imply that both comma and space separation is supported:
$ grep -r console= --exclude-dir=contrib .

Manpage has to be changed. I struggled with this yesterday on a machine I
wanted to access via Serial-over-LAN.
