I see something like following when rebooting my FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE: sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio0 type 16450 sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1 not found at 0x2f8 (All other boot-up strings looks like usual...) As the result, "Failed to open /dev/cuaa1: device not configured" from pppd or natd daemon (don't remember exactly - its just from memory). What is the history? I was asked to setup a router (LAN-to-dialupPPP) for one guy on FreeBSD... I took his hard disk, installed it into my comp (as primary master), installed FreeBSD on it, configured and tuned the router with my LAN and modem. All worked O'K - no any problem with sio0 or sio1. Then... I removed HDD with FreeBSD from my comp and installed it into his comp, where it should be... And... I'm in troubles :( Good old msd.exe from MS-DOS shows that it see COM1: irq=4, I/O=0x3f8 and COM2: irq=3, I/O=0x2f8. FreeBSD does not... Of course, I said in UserConfig (Boot: -c) to use sio0 and sio1. I think, I will try to talk with modem on that computer by some communication program (like TELIX), booting from MS-DOS floppy disk, just to check these serial ports hardware - tomorrow. And will try to return HDD into my comp to test it once again. Moreover, some time ago there was a Linux on that computer, and it used the leased line modem on /dev/cua1 (sio1) without problems. May it be FreeBSD software/configuration problem? BTW, I see also: "WARNING: / was not properly dismounted" and [....] "CLEAN FLAG NOT SET IN SUPERBLOCK (FIXED)" on every slice of hard disk on that comp. Now I see it after almost EVERY rebooting (using "reboot" command or Ctrl-Alt-Del). What I can do to exclude this problem as well?
