Really appreciate your taking the time to reply, Cy. Just tried this. But same results. FWIW, I only saw the syscons message on 13.5. I've since made a 16-CURRENT from the kernel,base and lib32 archives that were on ftp.freebsd.org (now missing).
If you look at the sc(4) man page you will notice,
I know. :)
As to how I got my Framework 13 (with AMD chipset) installed, I cloned FreeBSD, including all data, from my HP 840, also running in UEFI mode, changing fstab and rc.conf to customize a few things before booting the Framework laptop. (The HP 840 also uses kern.vty=vt.)
Close to what I did to get 16 on my framework 12. All the right bits weren't yet available at that time. All good now tho. This is where I land now (on 16): Event timer "HPET" frequency 19200000Hz quality 350 Event timer "HPET1" freq... ... Event timer "HPET7" freq... atrtc1: <AT realtime clock> on acpi0 atrtc1: Warning: Couldn't map I/O. Just realized I might find some clues in dmesg(1) on my framework 12.This is from the same area as above (yep same Warning message on my framework 12):
atrtc1: <AT realtime clock> on acpi0 atrtc1: Warning: Couldn't map I/O. atrtc1: registered as a time-of-day clock, resolution 1.000000s ioapic0: routing intpin 8 (ISA IRQ 8) to lapic 18 vector 49 ioapic0: routing intpin 8 (ISA IRQ 8) to lapic 0 vector 49 Event timer "RTC" frequency 32768 Hz quality 0 attimer0: <AT timer> port 0x40-0x43,0x50-0x53 irq 0 on acpi0 Thoughts? Thanks again!
To boot the Framework from install media, break to the loader prompt and type in, kern.vty=vt Then boot. Install FreeBSD. Finally, make sure kern.vty=vt is in the installed image's loader.conf before rebooting the image. Hope this helps.
