Note the reply address in the message is wrong. If you respond via email pls
send to 'ram@epidat.epi.wisc.edu' . I will post a summary since I think  that others
will be interested in the answer.

So what is the sio driver (guess serial io?) If so is it a newer one from the serial
port driver that comes with NetBSD-0.8?  Does it get rid of the silo overflow
errors?

Thanks for any info.

BTW, I must say that I am VERY impressed with the quality of answers that I have seen
on the net. Sure am glad we have the source to this thing. Maybe we can drive NT out
of buisiness (sp?) . :-) :-) :-)
