https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D213651 Glen Barber <gjb@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assignee|freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org |gjb@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #1 from Glen Barber <gjb@FreeBSD.org> --- There are a few problems with this, because of my own observations on some systems with multiple COM ports that I'm still trying to understand. On some systems, for example, doing as suggested will prevent keyboard input via serial console and only allow keyboard input on the system (and loader actually stops the system from booting on one system I have). Could you try instead adding 'boot_multicons=3D"YES"' to your modification = to see if you see the desired behavior? I'm a bit overly-paranoid about this beca= use of some behavior I have witnessed, and do not want to introduce regressions= on hardware that used to work out-of-box without loader.conf changes. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
