installboot: unknown option -- e
That indeed seems to confirm the last comment.
Issueing
installboot -o console=com0,speed=115200 /dev/rwd0a /usr/mdec/bootxx_ffsv1
doesn't raise any complaints, but after rebooting, nothing appears to have
changed. I still need to set the baud rate of the terminal-emulation to 38400 to
'unscramble' the console-output.
Any ideas?
