Hi,
I'm trying to setup serial console on my FreeBSD 7.0-BETA4, I'm facing
some issues.

I've a desktop mobo (Intel D945GNTL) with onboard Intel Graphics. My
BIOS doesn't support redirecting its output to COM1.
Following are the issues:
1. comconsole_speed in /boot/loader.conf is not working. I wanted to
try 115200 baud rate, but its not working when set in loader.conf. If
I set comconsole_speed at
loader prompt, it works.
2. Keyboard doesn't work irrespective of '-P' being present in
/boot.config . So I can't login to any TTY or login to X via GDM.
I'm following http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serialconsole-setup.html
.
TIA
