>Description:
There is reference to a kernel source file, named sio.c in the
FreeBSD FAQ, Question 5.9. ``Why does the screen go black and lose
sync when I boot?'' that does not exists in the form as it was
written. Actually, it was removed from /usr/src/sys/i386/isa [1]
and it was introduced in /usr/src/sys/dev/sio [2] and in
/usr/src/sys/pc98/cbus [3].
