I feel I should probably know why, but I can't seem to find anything explaining it... and my curiosity is just too great.
Why does the console behave differently in bsd.rd vs. bsd? I can almost always get serial console to work on some sun amd64 machines with bsd.rd, regardless of console redirection settings, and it will even work with their rkvm crap at the same time. However once the machine's installed the same settings no longer work and I have to tweak things. Is there some magic in the ramdisk kernels such that it drives both glass console and serial console at the same time, or something? Thanks in advance...
