Hi Matt, > Did we ever have an OF-only syscons for FreeBSD (probably early on)? I > wonder if it would also go over telnet... Early development was done with the OF console, but due to issues (maybe now fixed?) with the context switch to OF from FreeBSD, I abandoned it and went for a syscons framebuffer console made to look a lot like a PC. The OF console does still work if you boot under the gdb psim emulator. Not sure if telnet would work - FreeBSD is going to collide with access to the gem ethernet and also the decrementer interrupt. later, Peter.
