Does the dmesg output list any com ports?  Like:

com0 at isa0 port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4: ns16550a, working fifo
com1 at isa0 port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3: ns16550a, working fifo
com2 at isa0 port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5: ns16550a, working fifo
com3 at isa0 port 0x2e8-0x2ef irq 7: ns16550a, working fifo

If not, your kernel config file must be edited to match the com port
addresses / irq's and a new kernel must be built.
