The way this is supposed to work is that you can put -S<speed>
in /boot.config, which gets used by boot2, and the loader then
detects that the serial console is already in use and defaults
to the existing speed.
comconsole_speed="115200" in loader.conf should override it
if you don't want to replace boot2 or change /boot.config.
I'm looking into it now.
