Yes sir, I'm reading FAQ first. I know I enabled in /etc/ttys console line, but you know, all I have when it's booting is only few commands. Like echo and set tty and stty. Then it starts booting and my monitor shows me "no signal". I'm not sure, how could I modify /etc/ttys to replace existing console line with "unknown off". Except maybe mounting disk elsewhere. As you see, I was not very successful with my set tty commands. If it's possible to do it this way it would be great. -- ico
