Have you tried a simpler configuration to start with? ie. tip to the
system at a lower speed? May eliminate or show up some possible points of
failure.

This is the configuration I use for console logins on my 4.x boxes:

/etc/ttys:
ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   vt100   on secure

and initiator /etc/remote:
console|Console Serial Switch:\
	:dv=/dev/cuaa1:br#9600el=^U^C^R^O^D^S^Q:ie=%$:oe=^D:pa=none

tipping to console and hitting enter has always gotten me a login prompt
with this config. I have never explicitly called stty for the port.

Are there any lower system/kernel settings to enable serial logins? I
installed this box over a serial line, so something may have been done for
me behind the scenes and left that way.
