No such messages apparently show > up for any of the sio devices but the lpt0 etc are all configured properly. They must be disabled, if no message shows. It should say something like sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio0: type 16550A sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa sio1: type 16550A If NOTHING appears, then they are disabled OR they weren't compiled in. Boot with -c and make sure they are enabled.
