切明です。本質的にはどうでもよいことですが。

1.6     Tips for Serial Console Users
---     -----------------------------

If you'd like to install FreeBSD on a machine using just a serial
port (e.g. you don't have or wish to use a VGA card), please follow
these steps.

        1. Connect some sort of ANSI (vt100) compatible terminal or terminal
           emulation program to the COM1 port of the PC you are installing
           FreeBSD onto.

        2. Unplug the keyboard (yes, that's correct!) and then try to boot
           from floppy or the installation CDROM, depending on the type of
           installation media you have, with the keyboard unplugged.

        3. If you don't get any output on your serial console, plug
           the keyboard in again and wait for some beeps.  If you are
           booting from the CDROM, proceed to Step 5 as soon as you hear
           the beep.

        4. For a floppy boot, the first beep means to remove the
           kern.flp floppy and insert the mfsroot.flp floppy, after
           which you should press enter and wait for another beep.

        5. Hit the space bar, then enter

               boot -h

           and you should now definitely be seeing everything on the
           serial port.  If that still doesn't work, check your serial
           cabling as well as the settings on your terminal emulation
           program or actual terminal device.  It should be set for
           9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity.

なんかシンプルですね。最近の状況はかなり改善されていました。
