I have no idea how to fix this, any help > would be appreciated. is it internal or external? if it's internal, verify jumpers for IRQ and port addresses. if external, make sure what COM port it IS connected to. in either case, make sure the FBSD kernel knows about the IRQ and port by entering the config menu (-c at boot prompt - i think). enter -v for visual mode - make sure no devices conflict. sio - just means a com port - it doesn't necessarily mean your modem ... -------------------------------------------------------------------------
