Disable console menu

Doing so, is correct to say that if any problem happens that cannot be solved remotely (SSH and/or WEB) will have to be solved using COM1 interface ?

Will the video card also be blocked and the monitor shows nothing at all ?

If the COM1 interface is not available I think that the only way to recover/solve this eventual problem is to re-install and restore configuration. Am I correct ?

IMHO, the pros and cons must be considered when disabling console menu.
