# NAME

`console` —
amiga console interface

# DESCRIPTION

This release supports a “virtual” console device used for kernel printf messages and accessed in user mode via /dev/console. It is virtual in the sense that it is attached to a hardware interface at boot time. Currently the choices are limited to: a bit-mapped display acting as an internal terminal emulator “ITE”, the builtin serial interface amiga/ser(4), or a null(4) console in that order.

# FILES

/dev/console

# SEE ALSO

tty(4), reboot(8)

# HISTORY

The `console` device is currently under development.

# BUGS

You should be able to specify potential console devices at config(1) time.
