Bug ID: 213651
Summary: include serial console support in install media by
default, via /usr/src/release/Makefile adjustments?
Product: Base System
Version: 10.3-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: conf
Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: slv...@gmail.com
I'm aware that there are a couple of different methods to accommodate serial
console install, e.g. via boot floopy or by modifying install media to add
'console=comconsole' to /boot/loader.conf, but would it be worth entertaining
serial console support by default?
With FreeBSD 10.3, I noticed that it would be quite easy to accomplish this
with a few changes to /usr/src/release/Makefile
(add the console=comconsole detail after the vfs.mountroot.timeout entries in
/usr/src/release/Makefile, e.g. for context...
echo vfs.mountroot.timeout=\"10\" >> ${.TARGET}/boot/loader.conf
echo console=\"comconsole\" >> ${.TARGET}/boot/loader.conf
