Here are the questions: 1. Which device driver should I use? How should I create the device special file? It is com3 as the 'dmesg' shows: pc0<color> at 0x60 irq 1 on isa com0 at 0x3f8 irq 4 on isa com1 at 0x2f8 irq 3 on isa com3 fifo at 0x2e8 irq 9 on isa lpa0 at 0x378-0x37f on isa fd0 drives 0: 1.44M, 1: 1.2M at 0x3f0 irq 6 drq 2 on isa wd0 0:<WDC AC2340H> 1:<wdgetctlr failed, assuming OK> at 0x1f0 irq 14 on isa npx0 at 0xf0 irq 13 on isa That is, which major and minor numbers should I use in 'mknod'? 2. Which files other than /etc/remote and /etc/phones should I set up? Does anybody have the /etc/remote entry for the sporster? Thanks for the answer. Jerry
