Hi Maxim,

 What machine(s) are you seeing this on ? I've 'C' hot-key booted a 
bunch of different models with 7.1-BETA.
MacMini G4 1.2GHz.

I've re-checked with latest 7.1-BETA ISO, indeed if I am holding 'C' key the messages are displayed correctly, so that my checkin comment is partially invalid.
However, the issue is that if I set boot-device in NVRAM to 
"cd:,\boot\loader cd:" or to "cd:,\boot\loader hd:6" (I use the latter 
to routinely bootstrap my Mini which has no HFS partitions) the screen 
remain gray and blank even though the FreeBSD boots unless I do 
ALT-CMD-O-F. With those two changes, both loader and kernel access 
console just fine.
I am doing something wrong?
