stand: More sensible defaults when ConOut is missing
. . .
One possibly surprising result of this is that I did not get dual console
output on my rpi after this. (Curiously this only affected my arm64 image
but not my armv7 image.) Loader output goes to both, but kernel output is
only on the video console (which I don't normally use for my pi).
I just tried a RPi4B (USB3 SSD media) based on:
FreeBSD-14.0-CURRENT-arm64-aarch64-RPI-20220923-00d8a28f19b-258155.img.xz
and do not see the specific behavior, if I interpret
correctly.
The system has (unchanged by me):
# more /boot/loader.conf
# Configure USB OTG; see usb_template(4).
hw.usb.template=3
umodem_load="YES"
# Multiple console (serial+efi gop) enabled.
boot_multicons="YES"
boot_serial="YES"
# Disable the beastie menu and color
beastie_disable="YES"
loader_color="NO"
I had an empty loader.conf as I hadn't needed one before. My
firmware is also old (2017) which is probably a factor as it
doesn't provide ConIn or ConOut variables from what I can see.
