I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.2, and I'm trying to get my PCMCIA modem working
on COM2.  When I start up, the kernel finds si0, but si1.  So, as per 
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook154.html#372
I tried to reconfigure my kernel.  When I try to cd to /sys/i386/conf to
edit GENERICAH, the directory /sys doesn't exist.  When I look at /sys
using tkdesk, it tells me that /sys is a broken link.  How did it get
broken?  How can I fix it?  Does it matter?

Thanks,
Joel Gwynn
