Thank you for the reply Franck, but still no joy.

Yes, no /dev/bc*.

This tells me that there is no Ax.25 support in the kernel which is why I
posted the original message. I thought that I must have overlooked something
when I compiled the kernel. I've recompiled the kernel a dozen times
including different option without any obvious effect.
Also, any attempt to use sethdlc does nothing except display a help screen.
This may be an indication of the problem.
I'm sure that I have overlooked something that should be obvious, any ideas?
I've included my original e-mail in case it helps.
