My serial card is a 'cyclone' product and I am assuming it is the same
as cyclades. Although, I don't see 'cyclone' at all on the cyclades web
page. It could be that I have it wrong. Anyways, the card worked fine with
either rc.serial or rc.cyclades.
I also read about the support this kernel has for cyclades and did try the
arrangement you spoke of. By the way, you quote the user as 'uucp'. I am
using 'tty'. Maybe that is where my error is.??
Thanks Mike. And I will keep plugging away. I am really baffled by this
new(er) kernel. It sure is different than 2.0.36.
