What happens if you power the machine down and up again? (I presume you did it when you removed the ether card, but you may have booted DOS first...) Same result: "sio2 not found..." and sio3 too. > Here's an additional detail: the docs say the card is 16550A > compatible, but msd reports the UARTS as "16550AF". Is that an issue? Not really; it's all abuse of terminology. What brand are the 16550's? Are they, by any chance, inside a Startech 16C552? No, but close; the board (made by Kouwell) has two Startech 16C550CP chips on it. Tim (who's somewhat amazed at this outpouring of advice)
