One booby-trap I've run into is that, on my machine at least, a PCI
modem must be ttyS4 or higher. I find that I *MUST* set the following
in "make menuconfig"...
Device Drivers --->
Character devices --->
Serial drivers --->
(5) Maximum number of 8250/16550 serial ports
The PCI modem can't use the first 4 ports (DOS COM1: through COM4:),
so I have to set the driver to allocate at least 5 serial port numbers.
