For "normal" output, look in /var/log.  However, I assume the debugger
doesn't write to disk.  And neither does firmware.

One way is to connect the RS-232 console to a port on a second system,
and tip/cu from the second system into the problematic system.
You can then capture output using script(1).

IIRC, some "smart" terminals allow copy and paste.

I use the RS-232 port on an X terminal and use X11 copy and paste.

If all else fails you could take a photo of the screen.
