Serial Ports.

[Graham Lillico +44 1785 248131 <graham.lillico@gecm.com>]

Hi,

Does anyone know why on boot up my Serial ports are displayed as /dev/tty00 and
/dev/tty01?

I have tried running the 0setserial script from /rc.boot/ (i think thats
correct) and that says they are /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1 but it also produces
a wierd error, something like;

	cannot get serial info: not a typewriter

Does anyone know what this error means? or what i can do to fix it and where
the serial ports are set up on boot (i.e. what init script).  

I have serial support compiled as a kernal module and it is loaded on boot but
that puts an error message in /var/log/messages but i can't remember what it
is, something to do with an option.

Regards 

Graham
