You load the puc(4) driver as a kernel module, and the sio(4) driver
is *not* loaded as a kernel module, is it?
If so, there are two choices that you can make.
(1) If you want to load the puc(4) driver as a kernel module, you
should load the sio(4) driver module as well. By default the
sio(4) driver is kernel builtin. So you should remove "device
sio" from your kernel configulation file and rebuild/install the
kernel. Then you should add the following lines to
/boot/loader.conf:
sio_load=3D"YES"
puc_load=3D"YES"
(2) If you don't want to load the puc(4) driver as a kernel module,
you should add "device puc" to your kernel configulation file and
rebuild/install the kernel.
See my another post:

Hmm.. Did your kernel have the sio(4) driver? e.g.:
| % kldstat -v | grep sio
| 74 pci/sio
| 75 cardbus/sio
| 76 puc/sio
| 165 isa/sio
| 166 acpi/sio

That's odd just as you say... why?
