No it freezes after the "rebooting..." message appears. It isn't before
the firmware restarts. Hopefully the next firmware release will some
kind of fix for this.

Hi again,
I think I've found a bug: if I have a console session open using minicom
or cu when rebooting, the machine hangs. This doesn't happen with either
CentOS Linux 7 or FreeBSD 10.2 / 11. I can reproduce the problem. Anyone
else have this issue ?
The boot loader output is emulated video output until it switches to com0.
Once it reads 'stty com0 115200; set tty com0' from /etc/boot.conf, it
switches from video output to serial output.
During the switch, some contents comes out of the boot loader that is at
the wrong baud rate (or something similar). This causes some high characters
to come out, which your terminal emulator might interpret as a terminal command
and it could even send a short reply back. If it does, this reply stops the
auto-boot process and you sit at boot> indefinitely.
The solution is to not leave a terminal emulator connected during the boot
(or fix the boot loader to not output high characters)
