Hello,
I can't seem to get comconsole work on an ASUS A8VE-Deluxe MB :
- I get the boot-menu, can escape to loader prompt
and type, but no output once kernel starts booting
- I tried (almost) all possible combinations of hint.sio.0.flags
but no change, though 0x8 to recover s

For the reco
t; although I'd love to be proven wrong.
Options (as far as loader goes):
load kernel -h
or
set console=comconsole
Both will set up boot through the serial console, without
interfering with normal working of autoboot. A -P in /boot.config is
prefered, though, for the reasons Nordier gave.

You read the sio(4) manpage, and add -P to /boot.config as documented
in boot(8).

COMCONSOLE has been depricated...see si
I have been searching the web and testing hi and low, but have yet to see
a straight answer about getting COMCONSOLE working under 3.2 Stable.
Can anyone shed some light on this ?
Thanks!
