   Hello.

   My  AST4-Port  compatible serial card won't work (even  recognized)
   under FreeBSD-1.1.5.1-RELEASE.

   The kernel options are:

options  COM_MULTIPORT

device   sio4    at isa? port 0x2a0 tty irq 5 flags 0x501 vector siointr
device   sio5    at isa? port 0x2a8 tty flags 0x501 vector siointr
device   sio6    at isa? port 0x2b0 tty flags 0x501 vector siointr
device   sio7    at isa? port 0x2b8 tty flags 0x501 vector siointr

   On bootup, I get the following info's:

Probing for devices on the ISA bus:
sc0 at 0x60-0x6f irq 1 on motherboard
sc0: VGA mono <10 virtual consoles>
sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa
sio0: type 16450
sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa
sio1: type 16550A
sio4: master device 5 irq not configured
sio4 not found at 0x2a0
sio5: master device 5 irq not configured
sio5 not found at 0x2a8
sio6: master device 5 irq not configured
sio6 not found at 0x2b0
sio7: master device 5 irq not configured
sio7 not found at 0x2b8

   The card works properly under ISC-Unix/Fas 2.09.1 and Linux-1.1.18.

   Thanks for helping,
   Nora.
