+       The boot loader now defaults to 115200 baud rate to make booting over
+       serial more pleasant. To install the new boot loader do
+
+       # cd /usr/src/sys
+       # make clean install
+       # updateboot
+
+       To boot over serial add the following to /etc/boot.cfg.local (create
+       the file if not present):
+       menu=Start latest serial MINIX 3:load_mods /boot/minix_latest/mod*;multiboot /boot/minix_latest/kernel rootdevname=c0d0p0s0 cttyline=0 cttybaud=115200
+       consdev=com0
+
+       To install the new boot configuration run
+
+       # update_bootcfg

        The base system only looks in /usr/pkg/compiler-rt/lib now, so
        -L/usr/pkg/lib is gone.
