A 5 second timeout during boot might be too long, so make it
configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop the boot
by holding a key pressed.
Sorry to bother the list, but it would be nice if this patch could
trickle down into some tree if it's seen as acceptable. So consider
this a ping :-)
Yeah looks sane to me.

Personally I've never used that feature, I guess I don't have many (any?)
machines with real serial which seems to be a requirement for it to work.

I'll put it in my next tomorrow unless Scott or anyone else objects.

cheers
