When I do a warm reboot from Win98 to FreeBSD-3.3R-PAO on my Presario
laptop, FreeBSD is unable to locate sio3.  When I do a cold reboot, FreeBSD
initially reports sio3 as not found, but then (usually the last line in
dmesg), it seems to change its mind and reports sio3 as a 16550A.

My two questions are: why would FreeBSD have a problem with this port after
a warm reboot (Linux seems to be able to detect this port all the time,
regardless of the type of reboot)?  Also, when it *can* find the port, why
would FreeBSD initially say sio3 was not found, and then later on in the
boot process have a change of heart and tell me it is there?
