Description Jack L Stone 2006-02-23 14:00:14 UTC 
Using the ABIT AN8 Series motherboard

BIOS sees the ports as okay, but on boot tries to load FBSD but reports these errors & ports not active:

sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio0: port may not be enabled
sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0
sio0: type 8250 or not responding
sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio1: port may not be enabled
sio2: configured irq 5 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio2: port may not be enabled

Fix: 

Have tried everthing I can think of, including a dual PCI -- no fix.

This sounds as though it could be particular to this motherboard.  (www 
could not have been the correct category).

Hello is this still a problem on more modern FreeBSD versions?
