What's most annoying is the fact that I can use the keyboard just fine in the boot loader, it's when the kernel actually loads that the system starts ignoring the keyboard. Is there a way to enable the serial console from the bootloader (the OK prompt)? -- David Aquilina dwaquilina+freebsd@gmail.com
