Hmmmm.  What happens if you transfer data from the serial port but
just throw it immediately away, e.g. don't attempt to copy anything
to/from the disk.  If the silo overflows go away in this case then
it's likely that the IDE disk is hogging things and you should probably
swap it for a SCSI model.  Otherwise, I have no idea.  I run 115.2K
on a standard 16550 equipped serial port all day long and I get no
silo overflows at all on a P5/133.
