I have a Quanta D52B-1U server. When I boot it via legacy BIOS, there is =
no issue. When I boot with UEFI and COM ports & console redirection =
disabled, there is no issue. However, when boot UEFI and enable the COM =
ports and/or console redirection, the server hangs at boot time right =

On one occasion, I left it setting there for minutes.
I currently have FreeBSD 14.1 installed and I also replicated this when =
booting off a FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT ISO.=20
The chipset is Intel C621 & C624. Output from dmesg is here =
<https://gist.github.com/msimerson/1b6a3f3e34f9036b30e0972477993cfc>.
BIOS settings which enable console redirection and SOL are:
Super IO
Port 0, Disabled or Enabled (IO=3D3F8h, IRQ=3D4)
Port 1, Enabled (IO=3D2F8h, IRQ=3D3) <-- SOL port
Serial Port Console Redirection
COM0
Console Redirection, Port is Disabled
SOL
Console Redirection, [Enabled]
Console Redirection Settings, (VT100, 115200, None)
Legacy Console Redirection Settings
Redirection COM Port: SOL (other option: COM0)
Serial Port for OOB Management/Windows EMS
Console Redirection: Enabled
Console Redirection Settings, Out-of-Band Mgmt Port: SOL =
(other option: COM0)
Console Redirection Settings, (VT100, 115200, None)
There are variations on those settings which work for getting BIOS POST =
messages and the FreeBSD loader messages redirected to the IPMI SOL =
port. However, any combination that works also causes FreeBSD to hang =
at exactly the same spot.
I'm accustomed to adding a few lines to loader.conf to tell FreeBSD how =
to direct console output, but nothing added there makes any difference. =
I've twiddled the hint.uart.* knobs in /boot/device.hints to no avail.
This is what works on my Dell R630:
# console port via IPMI & DRAC
boot_multicons=3D"YES"
boot_serial=3D"YES"
console=3D"efi,comconsole"
# for legacy BIOS
#console=3D"comconsole,vidconsole"
comconsole_speed=3D"115200"
How does one go about troubleshooting this?
Matt
