I'm running 5.4 BETA1 on a soekris 4801 board. The unit emulates a console on a serial port. I want to use the serial port for my GPS so I want the console messages from BSD to go away - an in particular I want BSD to ignore inbound data during the boot process.
So far: I've used the regular mbr so that I don't get the disk prompt I've added "boot" to loader.rc before the beastie call so that it doesn't display the menu Both these change work However if I add boot.config with -n -m the system doesn't boot (and I can't tell why because I have no messages!) If I set console="nullconsole" the system doesn't boot and again I can't see why. Does anybody have any wisdom on how to get nullconsole to work?
