Hey everyone.

A few folks (two!) have reported problems when booting and accessing the
serial ports. Typically it's when ttyflags runs. When the problem hits,
the computer freezes solid.

Who all is seeing this? I'm not, so it makes it VERY hard to
debug. If you are/have seen this, please let me know:

1) that you've seen it

2) what kind of mac

3) what kind of modem

4) What if any settings you have in the booter

Typically the problem is that GENERIC#47 is the last working kernel.

Take care,

Bill
