I had several cases when booting FreeBSD/amd64 with motherboard having no serial ports hang hard early at boot unless I rebuilt boot media configuring it to NOT try accessing missing serial ports. I even could reproduce that with VirtualBox machine configured with no serial ports (not same as existing bug inactive serial port). Should there be some way to disable this serial ports configuration at compile time? _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
