HEAD up serial console users



Hi,
because of the commit below, the default XEN0 kernel will no longer
work if you use a serial console on the second serial port (com1 in NetBSD,
usually com2 in PC-land). You'll be able to boot using -c on the kernel
command line and disabling com1 (to rebuild a kernel, or switch your
setup to com0 as console)

Module Name:    src
Committed By:   bouyer
Date:           Mon Nov 21 22:15:13 UTC 2005

Modified Files:
        src/sys/arch/i386/conf: XEN0
        src/sys/arch/xen/conf: files.xen

Log Message:
Sync with i386/conf/GENERIC:
- add a buch of PCI storage devices
- add firewire devices
- add some missing PCI network devices
- add serial and parallel PCI adapters
- add lpt0 at isa
- add com1 at isa
  com0 not added for the benefit of serial console users (it will conflicts
  with the Xen kernel).
XXX this means that setups with serial console on com1 will now break with the
default kernel.
Use userconf(4) (add -c to kernel command line) or change your setup to
com0 instead (most bios allows arbitrary mappings of com ports)
