So far I put "BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED=57600" in /etc/make.conf, "options CONSPEED=57600" in the kernel and "console=comconsole" in /boot/loader.conf. Kernel and bootblock were recompiled and reinstalled. /boot.config contains the line: "-D -h -S57600" (speed setting through make.conf didn't work). The boot process now starts with: PXELINUX 3.11 2005-09-02 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H.

However today I got another hang and couldn't enter the debugger by sending BREAK. It is the same BREAK ssh sends with ~B, right? Even after rebooting, sending break didn't trigger a panic, so either I'm sending the wrong BREAK, or my console settings are still messed up. Any ideas? Fabian -- http://www.fabiankeil.de/
