That is correct; you need a serial console cable both for single-user
and to interact with the boot process, should it be necessary (e.g.
problems that prevent coming up in multiuser, such as a corrupt SD card
that fdisk cannot automatically fix, issues that preclude reading the
card or the slice table normally, bad /etc/fstab file, etc)
