If I remove the sio0 and sio1 from the devices to be probed in the conflicts list or from the BIOS the system boots. This problem manifests itself whether I have port expansion device/replicator attached or not. Has any one else had similar problems and/or is there known a work around, cause eventually I want to install a modem via the serial port, and it would help to have one available.
