You probably need to tell the kernel to use the serial console: # echo '-h' > /boot.config Also make sure you have the appropriate flags for your serial device driver, for sio on RELENG_4 use device sio0 at isa? port IO_COM1 flags 0x10 irq 4 or if you're on 5.x edit /boot/device.hints and set hint.sio.0.flags=3D"0x10" (this should be the default though). There's another knob for uart(4) on 5.x but I don't remember it right now. HTH, --Stijn --=20 The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common.
