 Earlier, I said:

 I tried that by replacing by taking an USB stick containing a
 NetBSD/amd64 install image with the boot block configured for a serial
 console and replacing the kernel on it by an uncompressed -current
 netbsd-INSTALL.gz.  It booted, but at the point where it should have
 printed the first non-kernel message ("Created tmpfs /dev", etc), it
 just printed the letters "Ce" and did not produce any further serial
 console output, nor did it respond to serial console input:
