I reckon your NVRAM contents are still screwed and the console output is being redirected somewhere (probably to the first serial port).
If you can't get to the OBP to change this then the only option is to hold down STOP-N as it boots (you might need to do that a few times) to reset all the NVRAM to default. Unfortunately this means re-doing the setup that you've already done.
If that doesn't work then it is probably a hardware fault.
Hope that helps.

guess(8) NVRAM WakeUp guess(8)
NAME
guess - Tries to guess the configuration by comparing four dumps of the NVRAM.
SYNOPSIS
guess
DESCRIPTION
guess tries to figure out the position of the wakeup time settings in the NVRAM. Just run guess from within the directory, where the four
NVRAM dumps at stored as "31.23.59.59+", "11.12.13.14+", "01.00.00.00+" and "01.00.00.00-". The file names denote the wakeup time, you have
to set manually, before dumping the NVRAM:
<DD>.<HH>.<MM>.<SS><status>
<DD> = Day of month
<HH> = Hour
<MM> = Minute
<SS> = Second
<status> = wakeup enabled (+) or disabled (-)
