I'm trying to use a Hayes Accura internal modem with
FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 and having this problem.  I've made sure
that there are no conflicts. The machine has been working 
fine with my previous modem set to the same com port.  The Accura
works under DOS, and msd (DOS 6.2 diags prog) sees it as a 16550A.
Yet, when probed by FreeBSD, it just says "sio2 not found..."

It's the 28.8K Accura and the box says that it has an
enhanced com port interface, so I though it might be doing
something non-standard, making it incompatible with FreeBSD.

But the weird thing is that it probes/works fine in my other
machine running FreeBSD.  The machine that it works in is a
486DX2-66, EISA, SCSI, 16M, and the machine that it's not working
in is a 386DX-33, 8M, IDE.

Thanks.
