>Description:
The instructions at http://www.mostgraveconcern.com/freebsd/sercon.html --
in particular, Step #8 (which involves the creation and installation of
a new boot block) -- no longer work as of 4.5-RELEASE. Recompilation
of the boot block, by typing "make all install" in /sys/boot/i386/boot2,
fails and the new boot block cannot be installed.      
>How-To-Repeat:
Follow the instructions at http://www.mostgraveconcern.com/freebsd/sercon.html.
The corresponding instructions in the FreeBSD Handbook, at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serialconsole-setup.html,
also do not work.
