 Read the FAQ.  That's what it is for.
 
 7.12. What's the solution or workaround for this
 problem?
 
 Until the bug has been fixed, you can use this workaround: 
 
    1. Enter -c at the bootprompt. 
      [ the kernel goes into configuration mode ]
 
    2. Disable sio0, sio1, sio2 and sio3 (all of them). This way the
 	sio driver doesn't get activated -> no problems.
 
    3. Type exit to continue booting.
 
 (etc.)

 Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
