Either recompile or use the loader tunable 'machdep.conspeed' I think. However, you'll probably want the bootstrap to work on teh serial console as well, in which case you need to set the speed in make.conf (see /etc/defaults/make.conf) and recompile and reinstall boot2 and the loader. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.baldwin.cx/~john/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
