Hi, I use the serial cart with 5.03 / 2.2.17 Serial driver version 5.03 (2000-08-11) with MANY_PORTS SHARE_IRQ SERIAL_PCI enabled 00:0d.0 Serial controller: Timedia Technology Co Ltd: Unknown device 7168 (rev 01)
I realized it can crash easy a system: run kermit on a ttySX to an another box. when you get the terminal just disconnect the cable and connect it on a another serial port (without any output) now quit kermit: your system should be crashed.
another bug (known bug I think) is: if you use a serial cable not connected, your system crashs on the boot.
I tested thoses bugs on freebsd. it seems to work on *bsd
