	I've had the same thing happen with two (probably identical)
motherboards that I've bought recently.  The kernel (even if I enable
all 4 sio's) is unable to recognise the second motherboard serial port
(even if I move it around from com2, com3 or com4).  The kernel says:

sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa
sio0: type 16550A
sio1 not found at 0x2f8
sio2 not found at 0x3e8
sio3 not found at 0x2e8

	The strange thing is, booting from a DOS floppy and running
telix recognises the serial port properly and happily chats to a
connected modem.  I am confused now.

Dave.
