Hi all

This options i tested first time, but no result on any devices (screen
+keyboard and ttya) I must reset via STOP-n + power ON

I have some problem with screen /dev/ttyv0 9600, this connection to
serial result no data :-(

After second test with set variable to:

setenv input-device ttya
setenv output-device ttya

And run screen /dev/ttyv0 9600 on second FreeBSD i386 machine, connect
via serial cable to Sun server. I run Sun server and now is all correct
and sysinstall run as init serial console.

Here is some photos.
