Oops. These files are symbolic links to /sbin/init.d/serial so you edit
this one (makes no difference).

Hmm. Did you really take ttys* or was it a typo? If not look what happens
if using ttys* and not ttyS*:
Bareis:~ # setserial -g /dev/ttys0 /dev/ttyS0
/dev/ttys0: Input/output error
/dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
Devices with major 3 are pseudo-tty slaves (see /usr/src/linux/
Documentation/devices.txt).

/sbin/init.d/serial I assume?! Right.

Looks good.

Can't say anything about this one without knowing what you have changed in
/sbin/init.d/serial.

Of course you use it, this is the message from the kernel's serial driver.
Try a
Bareis:~ # strings /lib/modules/<your_kernel_version>/misc/serial.o
and you will see the appropiate messages.

See above: Try using the correct device names ttyS* instead of ttys*.
