Is there, somewhere, a dev file that supports com port 4? I recently put
Tiny 386bsd on my hard drive, and I am in the process of transferring the
system binaries from an ftp site. My comm program is giving me problems, so
the process of putting those binary files on floppies for installation is
being hindered by the fact that I cannot zmodem transfer more than 1 at a
time. (a real pain!) I could use rz within Tiny 386bsd itself, but it only
supports com 1 & 2...my modem is on com 4. Has anyone written a dev. file
for com 4? Or is there one available somewhere? I apoligize if this has
already been asked...I don't remember seeing any mention in this group before,
so any flames are probably deserved. If anyone could email me with help, I'd
really appreciate it.

                                                   Thanks.
