Well, there are two settings, 9600 and 38400, BIOS selectable.

Guilty! It has happened to me after adding the wireless card...

No, the WRAP board does not support PXE booting, and you have to prepare
the CF first. Personally I edit the files in my Windows system, and transfer
it to the CF using na USB card reader. I even use syslinux from within 
Windows itself.
