console on sioN (not 0), RELENG_6
Colleagues, what should I do to drift serial console from sio0 to sio4 on puc (alas, com1 is broken on given motherboard, and there is no com2)? Quick googling and looking through the Handbook does not help much. Thanks in advance.

Only sio0 through sio3 (COM1 through COM4) can be used; multiport serial cards will not work. No interrupt setting is needed.

It seems (looking at kernel config lines) that this is true for RELENG_4 times; I hope something improved over time ;-) Sincerely, D.Marck [DM5020, MCK-RIPE, DM3-RIPN] *** Dmitry Morozovsky --- D.Marck --- Wild Woozle --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Quick googling and looking through the Handbook does not help much. Thanks in advance. What I've done: * Create or update /boot.config to include a line that reads -P (or -DP). * Update /boot/device.hints to remove the 0x10 flag from sio.0. (Not sure that's needed, but) Add that flag to sio.N (sio.4, in your case). * Assuming(!) you want to be able to login to the device, update /etc/ttys to have a getty running on ttydN (ttyd4, in your case). The above is based on my experiences with machines using the Intel SE7520JR2 system board, which provides an RJ45 port on the back for Serial B. Peace, david -- David H.
