Hi,

this is probably a FAQ ... if you run bhyve in an xterm with nmdm
console and boot a freebsd, how can you then switch terminals of the
guest?

The installer used to use a different screen for logging information or
providing a shell;  now I have no idea if bsdinstall hsa similar ways
but the general point is we don't have a 'send key sequence' to the
guest, do we?

Ctrl+Alt+F2 will never reacch the guest but get one out of X... and
likewaise a lot of other things.  Is there an escape sequence or
anything for this or is the answer "use vnc"?

/bz
