Hi,

mailman doesn't forward attachments, but I'm assuming you're seeing=20
nothing after the EFI loader finishes and jumps to the kernel.

I've booted on the eMAG insances at Packet.com, here's my notes:

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237055

tl;dr just to get the console output, you need to build the kernel with=20
the https://reviews.freebsd.org/D19507 patch =97 actually just try=20
booting an older build first, from before March 22nd. That should give=20
you output on the console. The graphical console on the EFI framebuffer=20
might work even in the current builds too.

P.S. Bugzilla supports attachments ;)
