it's right :(
i try next config:

>>>show config

in kernel:
device          sio0    at isa? port IO_COM1 irq 4 flags 0x10
#device         sio1    at isa? port IO_COM2 irq 3 #flags 0x50
device          sio3    at isa? port IO_COM4 irq 3

in dmesg:
sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0
sio0: type 16550A, console
sio0: interrupting at ISA irq 4
sio3: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio3 at port 0x2e8-0x2ef irq 3 on isa0
sio3: type 16450
sio3: interrupting at ISA irq 3

no worked :((((

so, can i try to run serial port under FreeBSD in pooling mode? :)
