Works great!  I added another file:

# cat /boot/conf.d/boot-args
boot-args="-v"

Now I have my familiar boot messages back. :-)

Thanks, this is very helpful!

Interesting.  Seems I was *almost* there in my test. :-)

Good to know.  But you still needed the entries on the OS level, namely

setprop ttya-mode 115200,8,n,1,-
setprop console ttya

in /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc and the ttymon/label property in the
console-login SMF service.  Correct?

[OmniOS-discuss] Loader serial console

2017-03-15 Thread Andy Fiddaman

In case anyone else is experimenting with the new loaded in bloody and
uses a serial console (or serial redirection), this is what I've done to
my test server to continue using the serial console:

Create new file /boot/conf.d/serial and add:

boot_multicons="YES"
boot_serial="YES"
comconsole_speed="115200"
osconsole="ttya,text"
console="ttya,text"
ttya-mode="115200,8,n,1,-"


I'm not entirely sure if all of this is necessary - I borrowed some of
it from BSD tutorials - but it works for me.
