Hello I want to use sio1 for console access. I read chapter 26.6 in the handbook and did the following: /boot.config: -P /boot/device.hints: [snip] hint.sio.0.at="isa" hint.sio.0.port="0x3F8" ### hint.sio.0.flags="0x10" hint.sio.0.irq="4" hint.sio.1.at="isa" hint.sio.1.port="0x2F8" hint.sio.1.flags="0x10" hint.sio.1.irq="3" [snip] My custom kernel: [snip] device sio [snip] /var/run/dmesg.boot: [snip] sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on acpi0 sio0: type 16550A sio0: [FILTER] sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled sio1: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 flags 0x10 on acpi0 sio1: type 16550A, console sio1: [FILTER] [snip] /etc/ttys: [snip] ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure ttyd2 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure ttyd3 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure [snip] The baud rate etc. are correct as well (the standard settings). The problem is I get no connection. I'm sure that my terminal works correct because I can connect other FreeBSD sever over the serial cable but not the above. Any ideas?
