The way this is supposed to work is that you can put -S<speed> in /boot.config, which gets used by boot2, and the loader then detects that the serial console is already in use and defaults to the existing speed. comconsole_speed="115200" in loader.conf should override it if you don't want to replace boot2 or change /boot.config. I'm looking into it now. -ed
