I have a boot floppy for FreeBSD 2.2.5. The probe program doesn't see the
serial ports sio0 and sio1 (at 3f8 irq 4 and 2f8 irq 3, respectively).
These are the correct settings, for sure. No other serial ports are
installed. The mainboard is a very new one
(at least here in Romania) i430 TX based (or inspired...). The CPU is K6
at 200 MHz. The ISA boards installed are the SVGA (S3 based), the Sound
Blaster Pro (8 bit) and the Adaptec 1542B host adapter. No PCI board is
installed. The NT had no problem in seeing the ports and also Linux
(Slackware 3.4). Of course, the two ports are enabled from the Award BIOS
Setup program, with the above I/O addresses and IRQ's.

Does someone have a solution?

Sincerely,
Dan Ontanu.
