Hey Joshua,

Does this only compile on OSX?
I wanted to try it on a SmartOS node to see if it fixes the funky kvm+serial issues I sometimes see with OpenBSD. But it fails to compile with "sercons.c:194:4: error: 'struct sockaddr_un' has no member named 'sun_len'"

Regards

Jorge

Just to confirm, you’ve set your console to VGA in the grub menu?

This is from the CoaL install docs in https://github.com/joyent/triton, but
it applies any time you’re using a local console:

Press 'c' to go to the command line for GRUB.
grub> variable os_console vga

That applies to the _Triton_ (formerly SDC) install media.  The
standalone SmartOS image, which I believe Nick is using, defaults to
the VGA console.

Robert is hard at work on a driver for the XHCI controller (USB 3).
Hopefully we'll have something ready for serious testing soon.  Once
there's a platform image available for testing, this mailing list will
the be the first to know!

By default, the OS will redirect the console to ttyb which is fine for
production but needs to be changed for CoaL. While in the command line:

Though somewhat off-topic, if you're using COAL via VGA (i.e. without
the serial console) you're missing out!  There are several tools that
allow you to attach to the VMware Fusion serial port that COAL
includes by default; e.g.,
