freebsd stable - Nov 2017 - Denverton CPU on FreeBSD

Hi guys,

I'm backing to this thread because I had no success yet. There is an issue
with console boot on Intel Denverton. I've followed the instruction bellow:

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/serialconsole-setup.html

I tried using an IPMI card and worked fine.

I don't know who is the maintainer for console code to get in touch. Can
some developer work on this issue? I can help making any test needed.

Thank you.

Have you set /etc/ttys entry for the serial port appropriately?

Maybe BIOS initialises the serial port differently?
