Hi, I set about to reconfigure my kernel and everything works great except for sio2. My COM3 port is unusual, it has the port address 0x3e8 with an IRQ of 10 so I commented out the relevant sio2 line in my configuration file and replaced it with this: device sio2 at isa? port 0x3e8 tty irq 10 vector siointr It works fine the first time I boot FreeBSD. In fact, it also works if I reboot BUT if I use the modem on cuaa2 (for user PPP) during a session and then reboot sio2 is no longer found. Before I used the GENERIC kernel and /boot/loader set the port, irq, and flags for me. But even if I book my new kernel through /boot/loader (I just boot straight to the kernel with my new one regularly) it doesn't help. I suspect this has something to do with the modem not properly hanging up or the COM port not being de-initialized. But why would it work most of the time with the GENERIC kernel?
