I'm afraid that there might go something terrible wrong... Anybody with horror stories or with success stories on how to do this the best way?

We found that if ACPI wants 2F8 on a given sio port, it was better ... er, only worked ;-) if we configured device.hints to match what ACPI expected. FYI, you might find "-dH" in /boot.config to be more useful that the console setting in loader.conf. It sets console=comconsole by default, but leaves you able to override it from the vid console if you are at the keyboard when it boots. Very useful. On Dec 16, 2006, at 9:34 PM, Marc G.
