OK, what I also did (but that should only effect
things after booting):
in /etc/ttys
set all ttyv?'s to "off" and switch console to "on"
so you will see the login prompt on your "console".

I have no suggestions anymore to make your COM1
work as a console. Anyone else? I'm really curious
because I configured quite some servers under
FreeBSD 4.? this way and never had trouble to
make COM1 work as the console.
