Asking here to figure out why I don’t get any usable ipv6 on my machine when booted on nomadbsd.
I have the following configuration in /etc/rc.conf
ipv6_activate_all_interfaces="YES"
ifconfig_em0="up DHCP"
ifconfig_em0_ipv6="inet6 accept_rtadv"
rtsold_enable="YES"
wlans_iwlwifi0="wlan0"
create_args_wlan0="down country FR"
ifconfig_wlan0="up scan WPA DHCP"
ifconfig_wlan0_ipv6="inet6 accept_rtadv"
ifconfig -a gives

When booting rtsol is giving me some message but it scroll way too fast for me to capture it.

I have tried this trick to see the initial console message from rtsol:
# uncomment this to log all writes to /dev/console to /var/log/console.log
# touch /var/log/console.log and chmod it to mode 600 before it will work
#https://forums.FreeBSD.org/threads/how-to-get-complete-boot-message.53547/post-301139
console.info /var/log/console.log
But do not get any console.log after reboot.
Any idea what I’m missing in my conf, ideas on how to debug this further?
