Package: base Version: boot disks of 1996_6_11 /etc/rc.boot/0serial tries to do a 'wild' interrupt detection. Also, it configures cua0 to cua32. That's "a bit optimistic"... Proposed fix: leave in only the last line of the script. Not two computers have the same COM ports: a Compaq Deskpro has only COM1, my computer has COM1 and COM2, other computers have internal modems on COM[34]. Niels
