-Hello
+Proxmox xterm.js can be added as an alternate console for a Debian Virtual Machine (VM). Nothing needs to be installed.
+== Configure Debian ==
+Edit the GRUB configuration:
+<pre>
+nano /etc/default/grub
+</pre>
+Add the following parameters to the existing <code>GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT</code> line:
+<pre>
+console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8
+</pre>
+Example:
+<pre>
+GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8"
+</pre>
+Apply the GRUB configuration, enable the serial login service, and completely shut down the Virtual Machine:
+<pre>
+update-grub
+systemctl enable serial-getty@ttyS0.service
+poweroff
+</pre>
+== Add the Proxmox Serial Port ==
+After the Virtual Machine shows as '''Stopped''':
+# Select the Virtual Machine.
+# Select '''Hardware'''.
+# Select '''Add'''.
+# Select '''Serial Port'''.
+# Select '''Serial Port 0'''.
+# Start the Virtual Machine.
+'''Do not change the Display hardware setting.'''
+== Open xterm.js ==
+From the Proxmox Console drop-down menu, select:
+<pre>
+xterm.js
+</pre>
+The normal noVNC console remains available.
