I have an 8-port digiboard on my pentium box running FreeBSD 2.1.5 (from 
the WC cd).  I checked the handbook, the FAQ, the web page, and even the 
DOCS cd (which was a major pain).  All of the messages I found with what 
appeared to be pertinate information pointed to doing some or all of the 
following items.  I have done them all, but am still getting "Divice not 
configured" errors.  I am sure there is something fairly trivial I am not 
doing right and/or outright missing.  Could some kind soul who has 
figured out what needs to be done please fill me in?

Thanks muchly...

Lee

(Also, has anyone been able to get the 16-port boards working?  What do 
you think of them?)

First, here are the changes I made to the kernel configuration file.  It
compiled and installed without a hitch.

options "COM_MULTIPORT"
device sio4 at isa? port 0x100 tty flags 0xb05
device sio5 at isa? port 0x108 tty flags 0xb05
device sio6 at isa? port 0x110 tty flags 0xb05
device sio7 at isa? port 0x118 tty flags 0xb05
device sio8 at isa? port 0x120 tty flags 0xb05
device sio9 at isa? port 0x128 tty flags 0xb05
device sio10 at isa? port 0x130 tty flags 0xb05
device sio11 at isa? port 0x138 tty flags 0xb05 irq 9 vector siointr

Second, I added these lines to the /etc/ttys file.  Since I only have four
active phone lines at this time, I turned the last four off.

ttyd4 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup on insecure
ttyd5 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup on insecure
ttyd6 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup on insecure
ttyd7 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup on insecure
ttyd8 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup off insecure
ttyd9 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup off insecure
ttyda "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup off insecure
ttydb "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup off insecure

Third, I added these lines to the MAKEDEF script in /dev.

sh MAKEDEV ttyd4 ttyd5 ttyd6 ttyd7			# cdev, serial
sh MAKEDEV cuaa4 cuaa5 cuaa6 cuaa7			# cdev, serial
sh MAKEDEV ttyd8 ttyd9 ttyda ttydb			# cdev, serial
sh MAKEDEV cuaa8 cuaa9 cuaaa cuaab			# cdev, serial

And after running MAKEDEF with said changes, here are the items that
showed up:

crw-------  1 root  wheel      28,   4 Jan 16 23:27 ttyd4
crw-------  1 root  wheel      28,   5 Jan 16 23:27 ttyd5
