No im not kidding. Part of the boot knowing baud rate loader lives in
the main disk boot block.
-cd /boot
-edit loader.conf
-add a line:
console=comconsole
-edit /boot.config make it read (with a return after it):
-Dh
(the above is minus D h return, thats 4 characters)
-cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
-edit PASODOBLE (or whatever your kernconf is called)
-add:
options CONSPEED=115200 # Console Redirection
-cd /usr/src
-make buildkernel KERNCONF=PASODOBLE
-make installkernel KERNCONF=PASODOBLE
-reboot
-pray
At one time I was working on patches to the loader to make the console
speed configurable. At the time, at least, I didn't see any evidence
that the settings were stored in the boot0 block, but maybe I was wrong.
In any case, finishing this up is on my TODO list.
