Sounds like your console is configured to a different device. Maybe it is configured to serial while you are waiting on vga. > Any notion what I could do to get my booting messages back?

Maybe you've lost the device hint for your console device to flag it as beeing a possible console candidate. -- B.Walter http://www.bwct.de http://www.fizon.de [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
