Open PE, check the motherboard right upper corner there you can find debugging serial port connector. On development models there is a hole in the case for connecting the serial console cable directly.
I have somwhere the pinout for the connector, there is a max232 so no need for voltage converting, plain RS232 works
I have borked my PE several times and if the bootloader is solid (usually you don't touch the bootloader) you can always rescue the PE via adb, all the tools are there and some extra tools that don't exist in fully installed PE.
There is full Linux tools, no crippled busybox stuff
