Does anyone have any suggestions as to why:

cat somefile.au > /dev/pcaudio

causes an instant back to BIOS reboot?  (even: echo "0" > /dev/pcaudio does)

From kernel config:
device          pca0 at isa? port IO_TIMER1

From dmesg:
pca0 at port 0x40 on isa0

Am I just using it in an entirely stupid way?

thanks,
james
