The best way to run hdt on the serial console is to use the cli mode.
At least, this how it had been designed.

If you just appened "nomenu" to hdt.c32, it will start using the cli.
Then, you'll be able to watch your hardware configuration.

A summary of the cli is available here :

Tell me if that match your expectations,

Sincerly,
Erwan
