I have device.hints in /tftpboot/boot/device.hints. Checking the ngrep logs, it does not seem to be loaded. The kernel is the kernel from the kern?.flp files in ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD/releases///floppies. > If it does, swapping hint.sio.0 and hint.sio.1 might be worth a try. Swap com1 and com2, why? I've got both the display and com1 (virtual serial port) output visible already. By the way: I found out I have to press enter to continue the output from show.
