baycom sethdlc No such device (19)

Greetings:
I'm not having much luck getting my baycom bp2 modem port/device to load. I'm
reading the ax25 howto and following it along (as root) (chapter 6.1.3).
When I issue:
sethdlc -p -i bc0 mode "ser12*" io 0x3f8 irq 4
my system responds with:
sethdlc: Error No such device (19), cannot ioctl SIOCGIFFLAGS bc0
I'm stumped as to what to do next. I built a 2.4.23 kernel with ax25 support,
then added modules for Baycom_epp.o, baycom_ser_fdx.o, and hdlcdrv.o. These
modules will load but so far, will not work!
Additionally, I tried to use DOS and run the baycom software included with the
bp-2. It simply would not work. The software wouldn't decode a single
packet and when I sent a connect request, sounded plain wrong. This was
mentioned somewhere on the tigertronics website and it said to use third
party software. . . Finally, I downloaded several "third party"
applications, and of all of them, a custom version of JNOS was able to work
with the modem and serial port. I figured that the ax25 kernel support would
probably also work, but I'm having second thoughts now :)
Any tips would really be helpful about now.
TIA, 73
