On UNIX machines, the ``console'' is the traditional place for system
messages to pop up on. FreeBSD comes preconfigured with 4 virtual
consoles, and this first one (ttyv0) is the one where messages
appear. Login in from one of the others, which can be reached with
ALT+F[1-4].
ALT+F1 -> ttyv0
ALT+F2 -> ttyv1
ALT+F3 -> ttyv2
ALT+F4 -> ttyv3
