IPMI - SoL

[Ryan Gillette]

I have been trying for almost two week to get serial-over-LAN working correctly with latest FreeNAS. I have an AsRock Rack motherboard. Everything seems to be setup correctly, but I cannot get FreeNAS to output anything to the serial console. When i boot up the computer I can see the grub menu and able to select different options there. Then it just goes to a dark screen and nothing else ever shows up on the screen. I have "Enable Console Menu" and "Use Serial Console" both checked. I only have one serial port listed in the drop down, and I have the speed set to 115200.

Thanks in Advance.
