Don't add to the existing rules, it can cause problems on updates. Create
your own rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules.

 but /udev is not running and when I try to restart it I get:
 
 The udev init-script is written for baselayout-2
 Please do not use it with baselayout-1

That's because BL1 starts up udev automatically, the init script is only
needed with BL2.

This is set by parameter DeviceMode: 0660 in file 
/var/spool/fax/etc/config.ttyS0. You are asked in the setup script.

If you want to make sure udev is running, do this command:

ps aux | grep udev

If it returns nothing, then you can start it with this command:

/sbin/udevd --daemon

Hope that helps.

Yes, you are correct.
I was able to find it as well:
http://wiki.contribs.org/HylaFax

I had a problem make it dial-up work in Windows XP running in VirtualBox when 
hylafax is running.
I had to disable faxgetty ttyS0 in inittab or Windows XP dial-up will not 
work.

But wvdial works OK when Hylafax is ON.

Presumably VirtualBox does not follow the Unix locking protocol:
