I would like the bootloader to accept no user input and do nothing but

look for timeout
Another possibility, from "man boot", section EXAMPLES:
Remove the 5 second pause at boot-time permanently, causing
boot to load the kernel immediately without prompting:
# echo "boot" > /etc/boot.conf
Note that for 4.3 and older systems, boof.conf can be overridden (i.e.
not processed) by pressing and holding Contrl when booting. Looking at
it now, I see that it's been removed from the -current manpage, so I
guess maybe it's not available anymore.
First, this functionality appeared in 4.2, so you won't find it in
every "older system".
Ok, I wasn't sure about that. I thought it'd been along for longer. (I
obviously have not used it a lot).
Secondly, it is still in -current man page and the feature is still
here.
Oops. I see now that
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=boot&arch=i386 actually
gave me the SOCPPC manpage... And I cannot seem to find the i386 one
through man.cgi at all...
Sorry for the misinformation and thanks for the clarifications.
