HI,

     I recently installed NetBSD 1.0 on my 486 and want to use my modem.  I
have used my modem with DOS/Windows and Linux, so it is installed correctly.
I have an external modem connected to my DOS COM2 port.  When NetBSD boots
and examines my system, it recognizeds com0 and com1 as either 82450 or
16450 with no fifo (Linux reports them to be 16450).  I read the MAKEDEV file
in /dev to see how it made the devices, and it said they were /dev/tty00
with major 8 and minor 0 for com0 and /dev/tty01 major 8, minor 1 for com1.
THe ownership should be uucp.wheel.  I made sure these were there and tried
to talk to my modem with cu : cu -l /dev/tty01
I got a connected response, but when I tried to type in characters, I got:
cu: write error:
and cu then disconnected.  
   Could anybody please help we ?  I appreciate it very much.

                     Dirk
