Subject:   sio0 not probed in recompiled Generic kernel - need external modem support on com1 port
Message-ID:  <LPBBIGIAAKKEOEJOLEGOMEIACGAA.barbish@a1poweruser.com>

I removed all the devices I did not need and recompiled the kernel. The new
kernel boots up but issues message 'sio0 not probed (Disabled)'. I need sio0
for a external modem so I started to test different kernels.

I then booted using the kernel.GENERIC that comes with FBSD and the sio
ports are probed ok.

I them recompiled  /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC original source creating a new
generic kernel that should match the kernel.GENERIC. This new kernel also
issues message 'sio0 not probed (Disabled)'.

How can this be? Is not the kernel.GENERIC built from the GENERIC source?
That's what the handbook says.

The only change to the basic FBSD 4.4 install is I added boot_verbose="YES"
statement to the loader.conf file so I would always get the verbose
(detailed) boot messaged.

This should be very easy for one of you FBSD experts to reproduce. Is there
a bug in the make process for FBDS4.4, or is there wrong source definitions
in the GENERIC source file?
