I am attempting to install FreeBSD 4.3 or 4.1 on to a Toshiba Portege 
3490CT, but I am having problems booting as the probe of the serial 
ports causes a system hang. 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.

Thanks for your time

David Dooley
