Configuration SCO 386 2.2, Toshiba 5200/100 with toshiba modem. No hardware manual (yet). Can someone help please? I've had *such fun* trying to get my third port active. If I set up so that all 3 are live (Port A = int4, Modem = int3 (Com2 in effect) and Port B = int5) with a standard kernel Xenix thinks I have a 4-port Sperry/Mitsubishi Com3 card. Great I thought --- sniff around in sioconf.c, and put in the parameters for my 2nd serial Port (I want that modem to be a live tty2A) and away we go! Well so much for theory. 1 recompiled sioconf.c in the library, edit "master" to give int 5 to the sio handler, as well as the printer, (losing int 27 in the process, but I don't have that board) and re-make c.c is now handling vector5 as one would expect, so I am hopeful. Re-boot with the new kernel. Hmmm. Sperry board has 1 port, Sperry board has 4 ports. Ah well --- probably just spotting the normal boards? anyway It thinks I've a single port board at COM3 so it's looking good. Enable tty3a. Seems I've a very looseline at serial 7, so much so that I can't do anything else. FSCK time again. Anyone actually done this?
