It's been a very long missing feature on Solaris x86, but became less important as the number of motherboard serial ports has reduced over the years, and ISA-bus serial cards became unusable (no ISA-bus slots anymore). Can you disable ttya (com1) in the BIOS, and then reconfigure ttyc (com3) to have the i/o address and irq which were associated with com1, so it looks like com1 (ttya) to the OS? (IIRC, 0x3f8 and IRQ 4) -- Andrew _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
