Greetings all!

I'm trying to set up LRP using the dachstein image on a 486 with a serial
port modem and diald.  I have almost everything configured and apparently
working except the modem.  I try to communicate with it through /dev/ttyS0
(it is COM1), but all that I get is the following error:

cannot create /dev/ttyS0: error 19

This would indicate to me that the proper module isn't in the kernel.  I
have added serial, slhc, slip, ppp and ppp_deflate.  Is there another module
I need to load??

Any pointers in the proper direction would be appreciated!

TIA!

You don't mention if you are using the floppy version.  The floppy version of dachstein does not have serial port built in to save space.  You have to add the serial.o in modules or if you need kernel serial (boot messages etc) you may have to use one of the kernels from the other Dachstein versions.
