--- Comment #47 from Arrigo Triulzi <arrigo@alchemistowl.org> ---
Found a work-around! 

At least with FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE (in the process of being upgraded to FreeBSD
14.1-RELEASE) if you press keys on the console _during boot_ then somehow the
USB controller from the iLO is recognised and you get a working console.

Tested with iLO firmware 3.09 (08 Oct 2024) and FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE.

*NOTE* this does _not_ work once the kernel has booted, you _must_ press the
key while the kernel is booting.

Obviously this is perfectly useless if your FreeBSD system has booted
unattended and you want to get a console afterwards.
