Hi -

Thanks - this is helpful (I'm a novice at BIOS details). Here's what I see with

> d 400
0000:0400  F8 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 9B

Looks like 0x03fe is correct for the first uart (/dev/ttyS0), but all zeros after that (starting at 0:402h). Looks like the BIOS isn't setting the second uart?

I'm using netBIOS 1.41c.

Thanks-
-Toby

I cannot get Linux to recognize the second serial port on the net6501.

this second uart would be handled by the linux serial8250 driver.

Traditionally legacy devices must be enabled / enumerated by BIOS
subroutine. I don't have net6501 to check, but i have i wonder what bios
data table at address 0:402h shows.
