Have tried with latest* kernel, there is a fixed bug in int 25/26 that may
effect it.

You may want to try RIFS as well, it has source, but I don't recall if it
used serial, parallel, or either but did work with FreeDOS kernel as well
as it did with PCDOS.

* I'm releasing updated version this weekend if time permits after I commit
changes from git to svn.
