what do you think of the following two diffs?

Most likely I overdid various checks in libi386/comconsole.c.
And, obviously, the RETRY_COUNT value is pulled out of thin air.
Any help and suggestions are very welcome.

console="vidconsole,comconsole"
in loader.conf on hardware where serial ports are disabled in BIOS.
Previously loader would just hang trying to apply the console setting.


This patch would be a blessing - I've had problems like the one that you describe.
