Off couse, Serial Connection work with ZTerm and Serial Console on Mac OS.
Serial Console setting is 9600bps 8bit nonparity.

My Question is Why Mac does NOT restart ?
When I don't switch on Use Serial Console in Booter, Mac restart with netbsd
kernel.
But I switch ON use Serial console in Booter, Mac does NOT restart.
Off course Mac freeze.

BTW, When use netbsd with Serial Console, What do I see on Serial Console.
Same as boot echo when nomal(ADB) console use ?
Only Login Prompt after netbsd booting up ?
