The branch stable/13 has been updated by emaste: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=bbb6bfeaae460ae1be5218d4456e47dfd86fa62d commit bbb6bfeaae460ae1be5218d4456e47dfd86fa62d Author: Ed Maste <emaste@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2024-05-24 21:45:14 +0000 Commit: Ed Maste <emaste@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2024-05-27 15:25:28 +0000 vt(4): add note about sc/UEFI incompatibility syscons is not compatible with UEFI boot. This is noted in syscons(4), but not mentioned in vt(4) where the kern.vty tunable (used to select vt or sc) is documented. Add a note so that if someone reads vt(4) but not sc(4) they are not surprised by having no usable console.
