Always
With Disabled Serial Redirection functionality is
disabled at the end of BIOS POST.
If set to Always, all resources and interrupts
associated with Serial Redirection are protected and
not released to DOS. This option lets Serial
Redirection permanently reside at base memory
which allows the DOS console to be redirected. Note,
that graphics output (VGA, SVGA, etc) from DOS
programs is not redirected!

during the OS boot loader process. This allows boot
status messages to be redirected, but Serial
Redirection will terminate when the OS loads.
