Is there a way to increase the speed of my serial console from the
default of 9600 without recompiling the kernel?  I checked the handbook
and read about adding a few lines to /etc/make.conf.  Then it said to
recompile the "boot blocks" but did not say how to do so.  So how do I
just recompile the boot blocks?

Also, the had book talked about creating /boot.config and adding an "-h"
option.  And it also talked about adding "set console=comconsole" in
/boot/loader.conf.  What is the difference between the two ways of doing
it?  I think I would like to have my serial console available as early
in the boot process as possible.  What is the best way?

Thanks,

Drew
