UARTS on AMD can be a bit different. Some BIOS implementations seem to set them up to work like legacy ports others do not. On a Naples platform I helped add support for them since they were not setup in the legacy configuration. The AMD servers I'm using now have them setup in legacy mode and just work like on other systems. If I remember right those UARTS were defined in ACPI. On a laptop they probably don't have serial ports and the probe is getting stuck on something. It might be good to instrument it to see what. Thanks, Doug A.
