To make it brief, I've configured my Digiboard to the default I/O addresses,
IRQ 4, and modified my configure file, recompiled the kernel, etc..

It finds & identifies all of my digiboard ports correctly...

If I enable getty on any digiboard com port, it runs but does nothing...

For every time I type "echo boo > /dev/tty00" I get the next character in
the NetBSD login banner on my remote terminal.  Ie: Typing it 9 times
get's my the following output on my terminal "\r\n NetBSD".

Anybody?  Anybody?  I'm trying to setup a public access system here in
Michigan w/8+ lines, I would like to use NetBSD over SCO UNIX, but I need
to be able to get my digiboards to work... It's an ISA bus, Digiboard/X8
or whatever.. The 8 port board...
