I don't see the problem here. You can have a lot of virtual console in
QEMU. The Malta platform currently emulates a parallel port and two
serial ports, so the malta display is in the fourth position. Even with
a video card and the third serial port emulated, that will put it in
sixth position, which is IHMO reasonnable.
