Make sure that "com1" in /etc/remote is set with appropriate values. The default is: sio0|com1:dv=3D/dev/cuaa0:br#9600:pa=3Dnone: The output above looks to me like the problem is simply with the bit rate. Try some other values. You can specify them manually on the tip command line with the -s option. Regarding your problem with sio2, possibly your kernel is configured specifying an extra serial port that doesn't actually exist on the hardware? How many physical serial ports does your device actually have?
