Hi! I have remote router based on https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/J1800IC/ It boots using Legacy BIOS mode (MBR partitioning) and has latest BIOS revision 0808. With 11.1-RELEASE, it runs just fine with default console driver vt(4). With 11.2-RELEASE and GENERIC kernel/modules extracted from official distribution (not built locally), it does not boot at all with vt(4) hanging solid after "Booting..." message. It helps to switch to syscons(4) by kern.vty="sce" in /boot/loader.conf, then it boots and runs just fine. Sadly, I will not have an opportunity to debug this further due to missing remote console and alternative channel-forming equipment. So, this is just for archives.
