No, you posted a way for people who don't know better to fuck up their
machines for no reason, because you also don't know better.  Then when
you were told that you were wrong, and GENERIC is fine, you claimed
nobody has given any info on how to make GENERIC work.  This is
obviously rediculous, all the documentation is for GENERIC, which works
the same on soekris as any other i386 machine.

If you want to mess up your system because you can't be bothered to
read the documentation (http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq7.html#SerCon)
that's up to you, but don't try to trick other people into screwing up
their machines too, and don't complain about a lack of documentation.
Just because you didn't read it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
