This Fix will configure the console device with the correct instance number. Defect Description: PHKL_24906: ( SR:8606214769 CR:JAGad76510 ) The instance numbers are hardcoded for the serial console device. This prevents the machine from booting if the instance numbers ever change. Resolution: Configure the serial console device using the actual instance number that was assigned to the device instead of using a hardcoded value.
