I've got a serial console on an older 100 MHz Pentium mother board which is locking up on me. It always works after boot, but after a few minutes to a few days (its been as short as 3-5 minutes, but as long as 4-5 days) the serial console stops responding to anything. The system is working fine, its just that the console is dead. I enabled DDB and BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER in the kernel, and next time it locked up a break wouldn't even get me to the kernel debugger. I've done this with both of the built in serial ports, using a seperate ISA serial card (with the built in serial ports disabled), using different interrupts, all to no avail. The motherboard is an ASUS P/I-P55TP4XE. I'm running FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE Does anybody have any suggestions?
