        You could try edit /etc/ttys and change dialup to cons25

        ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty bootupcli" cons25 on secure

        If you want vid and comconsol you can edit /boot/loader.conf and add
        boot_multicons="YES"
        boot_serial="YES"
        console="vidconsole,comconsole"
