Hi, there,

    I just loaded FreeBSD-1.1.5.1 onto my new hard drive and everything seems
    to be working fine, but with only one problem.   My Zoom 14.4 fax/modem
    set to COM4 in DOS works fine, but doesn't get recognized in FreeBSD.
    On bootup, the sio3 (address 0x2E8) indicates 'no device detected'.  I
    checked the FAQ and couldn't find any help.  So what should I do to make
    the Zoom get known on boot?  Any help is appreciated.  

Alan
