OPNsense - Boot Failure
July 14th, 2024Newer versions of OPNsense fail to boot on my router hardware. The solution is:
During installation/boot when you see the boot options, press the space bar. Select 3 to set boot options then type the following:
set kern.vty=sc
boot
Add "kern.vty=sc" to the /boot/loader.conf.local file to make the change persist through reboots
