It is currently fairly difficult to debug the kernel. Once the VGA stops working for whatever reason visibility into the kernel becomes near zero.
When solved developing new features for the kernel/operating system will become more simple and debugging time will go down.

To create a better logging system we'll need to make sure the system does the following things:

Logs to the serial port
Logs to the VGA
Can react to input from the serial port
Is ready and working shortly after the bootloader loads our kernel
