i made a clean install of freebsd 5.0-release in my home machine and i
am having trouble setting up my box for dial-up access to the internet.

my modem is connected to com4 but my dmesg entry shows that the kernel
is only tracking up to com2. i tried looking at my kernel configuration
file but it is only showing one line for serial devices (device sio).
how can i get around this?

i remember that setting it up in the 4.x series was much easier.

TIA.
