I don't know about the 4501, but the 5501 works fine. Any chance you grabbed 
the 64 bit image by mistake?

You need to create a boot.conf file with a couple of commands. Read
this:

   http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq6.html#PXE

The contents of the file will likely need to be as follows:

   stty com0 115200
   set tty com0

The default baud rate is 9600 -- so if you're using a rate other than
9600, specify it with the first command.

Also, lunch was okay.  Since we are talking about totally different
things.

I think that's what is meant by "I redirected the console", but it would
have been better if the OP had included exact commands and the console
output.

+1 for the amd64 question as that's exactly where that would fail.

yeah basically :-P

but the hint with the version of the image seems to be the right thing 
to check. I had the image laying arround since earlier this yeah when I 
set up a 6501 so this should be a 64bit image and if I remember right 
4501 is only capable of 32bit. So I'll give it a try with a 32bit image:)
