I do not know this DEFCONSOLE parameter. Is this something special?
Most people use console=ttyS0,115200n8
If you enter this to  the grub option in the FAIme web page, it will
get added as a debconf question in this way
grub-pc grub2/linux_cmdline_default     string  xxxxxxxxx
This should enable the console on the serial port.
