Am I doing something wrong or VM images don't come with serial console enabled?
I see no output. Replacing
But why wouldn't this be a default in images built specifically for running in VMs which are very often headless???
Bash:
set -e
wget https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/VM-IMAGES/14.0-RELEASE/amd64/Latest/FreeBSD-14.0-RELEASE-amd64.qcow2.xz
xz -d FreeBSD-14.0-RELEASE-amd64.qcow2.xz
sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -smp 2 -m 4G \
-drive file=FreeBSD-14.0-RELEASE-amd64.qcow2,if=virtio \
-nographicI see no output. Replacing
-nographic with -display curses works well enough so I can enable serial console myself:
Bash:
echo '-S115200 -Dh' > /boot.config
cat <<EOT >> /boot/loader.conf
boot_multicons="YES"
boot_serial="YES"
console=comconsole
