    I did both steps. However... deadlock after either doing the SIGHUP on
    PID 1 or doing a reboot. deadlock appears than right after the boot is
    finished.
    Well... it may have something todo with what I found now in dmesg:
    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

    this doesn't look good, eh ?
    although:
    ([mhettwer@ares] <~>)$ ls /dev/ttyd*
    /dev/ttyd0
    ([mhettwer@ares] <~>)$ ls /dev/cua*
    /dev/cuaa0 /dev/cuaia0 /dev/cuala0

    but:
    ([mhettwer@ares] <~>)$ ls /dev/sio*
    ls: /dev/sio*: No such file or directory

    hmm... something's strange...

    best regards,
    Marian
