hi Kurt & Warner:
im trying on a PCengines apu2 fbsd 14.2, but have the same symptoms, no console.
dmesg|grep uart -> nothing.
after some trials the best i have is:
the bsd-menu showing
5. Cons: Serial
and only the kernel messages.
no /dev/console, no /dev/ttyu0, but can remote login.
btw, all works fine with a 13.1 kernel
