in your /etc/rc.conf and none of the wscons stuff will attempt
to start.   (The default in /etc/defaults/rc.conf should be wscons=NO).

wscons=yes was set for some reason in /etc/rc.conf
I've commented it out

Now this error has replaced it:

Dec  9 05:00:26 vm-netbsd10 getty[1570]: /dev/ttyE3: Device not configured
Dec  9 05:00:26 vm-netbsd10 getty[1524]: /dev/ttyE2: Device not configured

Does this have anything to do with the instance being a vm?
If I understand correctly, wscons is "glass" console.
The vm runs in a tmux session so I guess the console will be whatever
emulated serial tmux defaults to.
