Hi,
Yesterday I installed a brand new server with OPNSense on ZFS basis. Today I had to reboot to check things in the BIOS. Then I noticed that the server no longer boots into the text console, but something graphical. The server itself is normally accessible via WebUI. There is no boot stick or virtual media in it. I have also tried with Linux Style Alt+F1 - F12 to change the console, but had no success. Can I edit a file somewhere via SSH that restores the classic boot? Have a look at the screenshot

Any ideas?
Thanks!

was my own fault. I had restored a backup of another firewall and there the "serial console" was default. I changed it to VGA and it works again.
