What I've done: * Create or update /boot.config to include a line that reads "-P" (or "-DP"). * Update /boot/device.hints to remove the 0x10 flag from sio.0. (Not sure that's needed, but....) Add that flag to sio.N (sio.4, in your case). * Assuming(!) you want to be able to login to the device, update /etc/ttys to have a getty running on ttydN (ttyd4, in your case). The above is based on my experiences with machines using the Intel SE7520JR2 system board, which provides an RJ45 port on the back for "Serial B". Peace, david -- David H.
