Hi, I have built a FreeBSD 7.0RC2 system to use both the serial and video consoles. I find that when I drop into single user mode (shutdown now) on the terminal connected to the box itself I do not see the single user mode prompt on the serial console terminal. Likewise, when I drop to single user mode on the serial console I do not see the single user prompt on the terminal connected to the box itself. Is this expected, or have I configured something incorrectly? In /etc/make.conf I have BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED=115200 In my kernel configuration file I have: options CONSPEED=115200 I have rebuilt and installed world and the kernel. In /etc/ttys I have ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" vt100 on secure I have also re-installed the bootstrap code: cd /usr/src/sys/boot make install bsdlabel -B bootPartition In /boot/loader.conf I have boot_multicon="YES" boot_serial="YES" comconsole_speed="115200" console="vidconsole,comconsole" Kind regards, Geoff
