I have an IBM AT running SCO Xenix 2.2.1 with 3 IBM 0-12meg boards in it.
Each board has a serial and parallel port on, each of which can be configured
for 1 or 2. IE: com1: or com2:
Unfortunately this means that one boards' IO capability is being wasted.
Does anyone know how to modify a board to allow the comm port to respond
to a different interrupt and base address ?
port irq addr
com1: 4 0x3f8
com2: 3 0x2f8
com3: 2 0x3e8
Basically, I want a com3: on the currently unused board. Hopefully this
would only require some minor surgury, cutting and pasting a couple of
traces. Hopefully. Can anyone help ?
