# vm console VMNAME

Starting syslogd.
Starting local daemons:
Starting primary installer on ttyu0

Welcome to FreeBSD!

Please choose the appropriate terminal type for your system.
Common console types are:
   ansi     Standard ANSI terminal
   vt100    VT100 or compatible terminal
   xterm    xterm terminal emulator (or compatible)

Console type [vt100]: 

If You hit [ENTER] here it will continue in 'vt100' mode - which is quite a 
'downgrade' from 'xterm'.

I know how to work around those - I am sending these errors so they will be 
fixed so they will not hit newcomers.

I am not sure this is possible to do with 'vm console VMNAME' under 'vm-bhyve' 
connection that uses cu(1) command to attach to Serial Console ...
