some issues with 14.1

hi,
these are some issues I’m having with 14.1.
1- I use SOL to view the console via ipmi - not the serial but the serial-over-lan.
    up to13.2 all is ok, by all i mean:
	1 - boot/kernel/init output is visible
	2 - escape to debugger via \n~^B works.
	3 - /dev/console is fine
   with 14.1:
	1- init output is missing (have to guess why multiuser fails :-)
	2- no longer works
	3- is not working (hence explaining 1)
any insights?
thanks,
	danny
