I have compiled two kernels and worlds in the 5.4-RELEASE source tree.
In /etc/make.conf, I have the line:

BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED=115200

Yet the speed stays at 9600 baud. This worked in version 4. Do I need to do something different in version 5?



According to the handbook section 20.6.5.1 you need to build and install new boot blocks after adding that option to make.conf.



Thanks for your reply. Don't boot blocks get compiled and installed as part of the make world and make kernel process? I've built and installed world and kernel twice since adding that line to make.conf.
As I recall, I didn't have to do this separately in 4.x.

Thanks,

I just re-read the section in the handbook. Step 6 says to install the boot blocks with disklabel. Maybe this is the part I've missed?
The bsdlabel man page shows this example:

bsdlabel -B da0s1

da0 is my boot disk.  It is labeled as follows:

blacklamb# bsdlabel da0s1
# /dev/da0s1:
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
 a:  1024000        0    4.2BSD     2048 16384 64008
c: 17783112 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit
 d: 16759112  1024000    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552

So can I safely issue this command without destroying the data on my drive?

That should do it...

Thanks again,

Drew
