Harvey ,

To get console.log in ubuntu we need to make some changes in grub config

Below steps works in ubuntu, hope only the file location would be different rest would be the same.

Write /etc/default/grub 

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200" 

then save and run 

update-grub2 
update-grub
