[rescue] Sun serial board

[Michael Schiller]

I have one of them installed in my SC2000 and it and it just more /dev/ttyXX
devices for it. Also, when I boot up the machine it loads the firmware from the
card I believe. IIRC it didn't load the firmware when just the card was in the
machine, but did after the 'brick' was attached to the card, but I could be
remembering wrongly.
