Using serial console for communication

S

Shreekantha

Hello All,


I have installed FreeBSD on hardisk of the baremetal SWITCH. ( I took hard disk of the baremetal switch to the normal PC. Connected it through mSATA cable and installed FreeBSD. Later connected it back to SWITCH.). I made below changes to activate serial console as per handbook:


Created /boot/loader.conf and its contents are:

Code: 
console="comconsole"
comconsole_speed="115200"
boot_serial="-h"

Also modified ttyu0 entry in /etc/ttys as :

Code: 
ttyu0 “/usr/libexec/getty std.115200” vt100 on insecure

Also created a file boot.config in / and appended “S115200” to pick the serial console speed. Still I am not getting the boot logs/logging console through serial console.


Any suggestions will be really appreciated. Thanks a lot.


Best Regards,

Shree

According to my machine it should be
Code: 
-P -S115200
instead.
