I had all intentions of implying it. I placed the following lines into /boot/kernel.conf (again this is on 4.1-stable so I suppose its possible the older one is buggy or has a separate syntax) as a test. Again, this is NOT the loader.conf or loader.rc. loader.conf tells the loader to load /kernel.conf as a type of userconfig_script which is different than the syntax of the loader configuration files themselves. port sio0 0x2e8 irq sio0 7 These values are completely wrong, and different than the compiled in settings for sio0. And it probed and failed to attach at the address I specified in the kernel.conf (and hung the boot process for that matter). I used to do this in 3.x in /kernel.conf or /boot/kernel.conf without issue. -- :Kevin M.
