Hi all,
I am running freebsd 5.3 under qemu (a fast IA32 emulator). My host
system is linux. Everything works fine, but I want to get rid of this
small non-scrollable window, not practical when gcc says I made many
many errors :-)...
you can scroll it after hittong tthe "scroll lock" key
Instead I want to get a console. In qemu's documentation it says : ====================================================================== `-nographic' Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option, you can totally disable graphical output so that QEMU is a simple command line application. The emulated serial port is redirected on the console. Therefore, you can still use QEMU to debug a Linux kernel with a serial console. ======================================================================
So basically what I need is, some how, to tell the freebsd kernel to forward its output/input to a serial port. In linux this is done by supplying the parameter "console=ttyS0". Is there something equivalent in FreeBSD ?
in /boot/loader.conf add:
console="comconsole"
that should do it..
Thanks for your help,
Aziz
