what am i doing wrong here?
From rebuilding the install iso and from the handbook instructions
here:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-advanced.html
which suggests that in /boot/loader.conf only
console="comconsole"
is required,
i have tried this and also explicity setting speed in boot/loader.conf
console="comconsole"
comconsole_speed="57600"
i have also tried having the settings i use to access via serial post
install
ie:
/etc/ttys: ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" vt100 on secure
and /boot/config: -D
but same result, install stops ( or goes elsewhere at point below)
It does boot stage 1 and stage 2 then i get nothing?
test serial output:
