Hi All,

I installed Freebsd 4.4 on a box that has no keyboard or monitor. I modified
my /boot.config with -P,
my /etc/ttys with
ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.19200"   vt100  off secure

When I connect via null modem, I see garbage on the screen, but I am able to
telnet to the box.

I read that I have to modify the kernel and add options CONSPEED=(SPEED) to
/etc/make.conf, then I need to recompile the boot blocks.
Is this what I'm missing or I'm missing something else in the original
config?

Thank you.
