 The sio drivers need both the port address (0x3e8) and the irq to be correct 
 before the serial port will be found. Please check the irq setting on the 
 card, and match it using '-c' switch at the boot: prompt.
 Please let me know the result.

 What, no "sio2 not found" message ?  Is it enabled in your kernel 
 (boot with -c and have a poke around) ?
