First, if you want to have kernel messages on serial console too, just install
biosboot_com0 as your bootblocks 
(in /usr/mdec: ./installboot -v -f biosboot_com0.sym /dev/rwd0a)

Then use something like this in /etc/ttys:

tty00 "/usr/libexec/getty std.38400"    vt420  on local secure

(and check you got a std.38400 entry in /etc/gettytab). Then set your terminal
to 38400/n/8/1 and you should be done. Obviously you'll have to adjust the
terminal type in the /etc/ttys line...

Works for me...
