--- Comment #24 from Andriy Gapon <a...@freebsd.org> --- Given the info in comment #20, I now think that using /dev/ttyv0 as opposed to /dev/console may be a good idea for a couple of reasons. The primary reason is that /dev/ttyv0 wouldn't be revoked by /etc/rc exiting. Another reason is that /dev/console is not guaranteed to be associated with the video console (whether legacy or EFI). I think that it's possible to have a system with both video and serial consoles and configure it have serial console as the console while using video console for running X, etc. That wouldn't be a common configuration but still possible. On the other hand, if a system has video console then ttyv0 must always be there and it's on the video console. At least, that's my understanding. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
