Hello list,

Is there a nullconsole in OpenBSD, similar to the nullconsole in FreeBSD?

I have a WRAP box where I need to use the serial port to interface an
external device. I don't want the default console on the serial port,
because any kernel console messages would disturb the communication.

On the WRAP, "set tty pc0" in /etc/boot.conf still uses the serial
port. This might be due to some BIOS setting, but I'd rather not
change that as re-setting the BIOS seems to be non-trivial.

What I'm looking for is a "set tty none" or similar in /etc/boot.conf.
Any ideas?
Otherwise I'll go ahead and implement it myself.

TIA
  Martin Hedenfalk
