I'm trying to run a FreeBSD 9.2 64-bit installation under KVM, but am having issues when I remove the video hardware and install a serial console connection. The installation boots just fine when video/Cirrus hardware is provided to the virtual machine, but once it is removed, the installation stops at the BTX loader and causes KVM to go into Paused mode, which cannot be returned to Running. Here is a list of adjustments that were made to configuration files: /etc/ttys: ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure /boot/defaults/loader.conf: console="comconsole" /boot.config: echo "-hP" > /boot.config Any help would be great. Thanks! -- David
