Ok, I'm making some progress with this. I got 6.2 Beta 2 installed with the trick in 1. When I tried plugging in the mouse after I was up, it seemed that some USB ports went away. Not sure what's going on there. A full power off will probably help that. The next thing I did, was try to get my serial ports working. PCI board from CompUSA. 16550 uarts. The dmesg sees them, but won't start them up. The messages are: sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: type 8250 or not respondingdmesg sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0 sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled In Knoppix 5.0, the ports come up and I can 'cat' to and from them. You can't alter the inittab on the CD, so I couldn't get a persistent getty on it. I could start a getty, and then when you try to login it, it kicks out and gives you an error message that you don't have a proper login process. On FreeBSD, try to start a getty on the port and the machine hangs. Reboot and have it on in ttys, and it hangs. Even doing a "cat >/dev/ttyd0" makes it hang. I guess that's because it's not properly initialized. I looked in the BIOS, and there is no place to turn on IRQ scanning. What is the dmesg trying to tell me? Paul.
