Aaron,
Since you indicated that you are adding a second port you need both
ports in your config statement:
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x0378 0x9000"
Here is how I set up my reads and writes: (not using steppers
requires adding them to the base-thread not the servo-thread).
# next connect the parport functions to threads
# read inputs first
addf parport.0.read base-thread 1
addf parport.1.read base-thread 2
# hook functions to base thread (high speed thread for step generation)
addf stepgen.make-pulses base-thread
# write outputs last
addf parport.0.write base-thread -1
addf parport.1.write base-thread -1
# The following two lines are needed if you are running "Double step"
addf parport.0.reset base-thread
addf parport.1.reset base-thread

I have added..
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x9000
addf parport.0.read servo-thread
addf parport.0.write servo-thread
to my hal file (hopefully in the right places). Can I not
configure the pins through the step config wizard?
