This is booting BIOS mode PXE, all console output appears on the IPMI SOL interface. Driving the beastie menu in pxeboot/loader works fine. When the loader hands the uart off to the kernel, I see all boot output and "everything is fine" The problem arises when trying to login. I see the amnesiac login prompt, but no key strokes are registered. loader.conf: console=3D"comconsole" comconsole_speed=3D"115200" boot.config: <does not exist> sean --8ZgOx1t7TpFRs0bBQW5Qg8qa0KNipxAdo-- --u43UdAYhKcC6GF8qwvdZq1YMGC6ATk0Uc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGTBAEBCgB9FiEE6MTp+IA1BOHj9Lo0veT1/om1/LYFAltreuhfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldEU4 QzRFOUY4ODAzNTA0RTFFM0Y0QkEzNEJERTRGNUZFODlCNUZDQjYACgkQveT1/om1 /LbLxgf/UfiQFarUgNrDoPBfPsITobjtChq9W2mmO4vRA5o+boXccP+m6vqaNfVr Kwi9yN8+jCTtv0s53ogOR45KPw3eu0mVsbaY+b1uKwd2nrI6GKFwhaBqK/TSoX0c NmGIpgzj+1luV0I8A1kV3DazIj/SKt6hW9CFRxnmNTTTvNMN+mGEUft1cEIUExCI Ak6G1segi4zZduA+t5GE/IRbgaF3RQu+Gmo59iiI+Ak075NPsLWAyp3hMp5SNNx6 mhtBhtCY7xrAkFaUhMgidKqgM/N2JPM9fH4l3cseyoMQWx90zsa0V+gWV2lV9YIi BBFiqkgVFC981rIo4N9nWi57KTZ5gQ== =3qq3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --u43UdAYhKcC6GF8qwvdZq1YMGC6ATk0Uc--
