Actually, obsd.img is empty. I'm trying to start a fresh

And, I should be able to see BIOS messages like "Starting SeaBIOS"

Wrong. The BIOS doesn't print those messages to the serial console.
The trick with /etc/boot.conf does work; this should transform the
cd48.iso install cd into a 'serial' one:
$ echo 'set tty com0' > /tmp/boot.conf
$ growisofs -M cd48.iso -l -graft-points
/etc/boot.conf=/tmp/boot.conf
Then:
$ qemu -nographic -cdrom cd48.iso
OpenBSD/i386 CDBOOT 3.15

booting cd0a:/4.8/i386/bsd.rd: 5900404
lilium$ qemu -cdrom cd48.iso -boot d -nographic -serial stdio obsd.img
Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated: No
such file or directory

Thanks! :-D
