FreeBSD, Intel Motherboards and Portmaster Serial Console - How?

[Samuel Clements]

*sigh* I was wrong. This setup will get you to the
Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt.

but getting into the BIOS over the serial connection will most definatly 
work.
  Sorry about that.
