I installed a RELENG12 snapshot from July 11th and having a hard time getting serial console to work. In the past, I would have something simple like ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200 vt100 on secure in /etc/ttys and in /boot/loader.conf console="comconsole,vidconsole" comconsole_speed="115200" # Set the current serial console speed With some googling, I did find I now have to use in /boot/loader.conf boot_multicons="YES" boot_serial="YES" console="comconsole,efi" comconsole_speed="115200" However, I can never get getty to automatically start up. I have # grep u0 /etc/ttys ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200 vt100 on secure # but at boot up time, I can see on my serial connection the boot loader etc and everything prints out to Configuring vt: blanktime. Performing sanity check on sshd configuration. Starting sshd. Starting sendmail_submit. igb0: link state changed to UP Starting sendmail_msp_queue. Starting cron. Starting backgrou and then nothing. No login prompt and I dont see getty running on the serial port. If I ssh in and then do a /usr/libexec/getty std.115200 ttyu0 up pops the login prompt and I can login over serial. However, I have to login as a non root user first. Any idea what I am missing ? ---Mike
