hello, i'm trying to remove the vga card from my freebsd 5.3 server - i need the slot for an extra lan card.
i have tried:
1. "console=nullconsole" in /boot/defaults/loader.conf
2. "-m" in /boot.config
i also turned off all ttys except network ones in /etc/ttys
still, the machine boots fine to nullconsole while the vga is still in it, but when i remove the card it restarts at about the end of booting process.
so, any ideas welcome...
kaak
