SuperMicro A1SRM-LN7F-2358, Intel Atom C2358What can be wrong?
Thanks! -
Are the NIC types exactly the same, igbx?
-
NIC are igb0 - igb5
-
Do you have any packages in your config backup?
-
YES:
acme, darkstat,iperf, mailreport,nmap,Notes,ntopng,pfBlockerNG,snort,Status_Traffic_Totals
-
Lacking any other clues, I might try stripping all package data from your backup and then try to restore just the base functionality.

That looks like where it stops if the other console type is primary and it's waiting for interface re-assignment there.
If your only config has a console type set it might not be whichever you're using on the new hardware.

Not I got it working, the reason for stopping seems to be the interface reassignment.
thanks!
console from the source maschine was serial, the new one has no serial, only HDMI. I guess that was the reason that I couldnt see ..
