I also have a FreeNAS which I'm using to serve DHCP addresses and = TFTP for PXE booting. I can get the blades to PXE boot (I'm using pxelinux to load mfsbsd-10.3-RE= LEASE-amd64), but the serial redirection is only working for the first part= of the boot sequence. After select mfsBSD at the menu, I get the followin= g (verbose boot chosen at the boot menu): Loading memdisk... ok ok e820: 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 1 e820: 0000000000100000 00000000cfea8000 1 e820: 00000000cffa8000 000000000000fc00 3 e820: 00000000cffb7c00 0000000000048400 2 Total size needed =3D 2513 bytes, allocating 3K Old dos memory at 0x8a000 (map says 0xa0000), loading at 0x89400 1588: 0xffff 15E801: 0x3c00 0xcbba INT 13 08: Success, count =3D 1, BPT =3D 0000:0000 Drive probing gives drive shift limit: 0x82 old: int13 =3D ca001da6 int15 =3D f000f859 int1e =3D f000efc7 new: int13 =3D 8940000a int15 =3D 894003ba int1e =3D f000efc7 Loading boot sector... booting... /boot/config: -D =20=20=20=20 FreeBSD/x86 boot Default: 0:ad(0p2)/boot/loader boot: BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.02 console comconsole failed to initialize Consoles: internal video/keyboard serial port BIOS drive A: is disk0 BIOS drive C: is disk1 BIOS drive D: is disk2 BIOS 549kB/3353216kB available memory =20=20=20=20 FreeBSD/x86 bootstrap loader, Revision 1.1 (root@releng1.nyi.freebsd.org, Fri Mar 25 02:04:38 UTC 2016) \oading /boot/defaults/loader.conf lapic3: Routing NMI -> LINT1 lapic3: LINT1 trigger: edge lapic3: LINT1 polarity: high lapic7: Routing NMI -> LINT1 lapic7: LINT1 trigger: edge lapic7: LINT1 polarity: high MADT: Interrupt override: source 0, irq 2 ioapic0: Routing IRQ 0 -> intpin 2 MADT: Interrupt override: source 9, irq 9 ioapic0: intpin 9 trigger: level ioapic0 irqs 0-23 on motherboard ioapic1 irqs 32-55 on motherboard ioapic2 irqs 192-215 on motherboard cpu0 BSP: ID: 0x00000000 VER: 0x00050014 LDR: 0x00000000 DFR: 0xffffffff lint0: 0x00010700 lint1: 0x00000400 TPR: 0x00000000 SVR: 0x000001ff timer: 0x000100ef therm: 0x00010000 err: 0x000000f0 pmc: 0x00010400 wlan: <802.11 Link Layer> snd_unit_init() u=3D0x00ff8000 [512] d=3D0x00007c00 [32] c=3D0x000003ff= [1024] feeder_register: snd_unit=3D-1 snd_maxautovchans=3D16 latency=3D5 feede= r_rate_min=3D1 fe eder_rate_max=3D2016000 feeder_rate_round=3D25 null: nfslock: pseudo-device =91=91=91=91=91=91=91=91=91=91=91 The odd glitch (=91) is me trying to input after output stops. I'm accessi= ng the console by TELNETing to the blade chassis, and connecting to the bla= de console. I believe this runs at a baud rate of 57600. Because of this = I've modified the following files within mfsBSD: etc/ttys (from inside mfsroot.gz) # Serial terminals ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" vt100 on secure ttyu1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup on secure ttyu2 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" vt100 off secure ttyu3 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" vt100 off secure # Dumb console dcons "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 off secure boot/loader.conf boot_multicons=3D"YES" boot_serial=3D"YES" comconsole_speed=3D"57600" console=3D"comconsole" The Java console from the chassis web interface doesn't work on my laptop, = but via another server I've been able to grab the attached screenshot. It = states: getty[706]: open /dev/ttyu0: No such file or directory Unfortunately the Java console doesn't work well enough for me to use to lo= g in and get at any settings (getting it to load that far took 10 minutes..= .) The blades BIOS is set up to redirect to COM2 (it's either that or be disab= led) and to emulate vt100/vt200 (could also be ANSI, but this doesn't seem = to allow input). Would anyone have any ideas about how I can get console redirection working= past this point? Or where I can look to get more information?
