I just installed the freebsd on my PC. I use COM1 for the mouse, but I
find the kenerl uses sio0 for COM port and there is no such device in
dev directory. So the mouse does not work.

I do not know whether I made mistake in kenerl configure or I should
make new device for sio0? (I do not know the major and minor #)

Is anybody can help me?

Thanks a lot.
