Serial console install - text is getting munged

["Josh Martinek" <kidmartinek@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm doing a serial console install on Fedora Core 5 and the text is
getting munged. Has anyone else seen this, or know what the problem
might be?
My console settings in my terminal program, are COM1,
38400 8n1 , Flow control = hardware. I have tried turning the flow
control off, and using different baud rates but that didn't help.

This is the contents of my isolinux.cfg file:

serial 0 38400
default ks
prompt 1
timeout 300
display boot.msg
label ks
  kernel vmlinuz
  append ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg initrd=initrd.img console=ttyS0,38400



The output on the serial console looks like this:

Welcome to Fedora Core
