If it can't generate the interrupt it will fail the probe. This was a safe GENERIC thing to do, and IRQ9 is the most common alternate interrupt for a serial port card that supports the I/O address for sio3. Also by deleting the line you now require anyone using 4 com ports to config a kernel :-(. Before if they had a different IRQ and simple boot -c would have fixed them up. Please but sio3 back. -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Reliable computers for FreeBSD
