You might as well go back to UTM 4.5.4 right away, I think I had the
same problem as wiz describes in
https://github.com/utmapp/UTM/issues/6919#issuecomment-2694071668 .

I think for me the framebuffer console just went blank and was
unusable somewhere in the middle of the boot process (with later UTM
versions), but using a serial console worked better.  On older UTM
versions I got to sysinst on the framebuffer console.

But I don't remember what NetBSD guest version that was with, this
might well have been 10.1 or so.

I can test this again tonight.
