FAS should work (you wil need to change the Y to N in the sio driver
entry in /etc/conf/sdevice.d to remove the sco driver).

However sco uugetty is not broken,  we have 4 trailblazers on one
of our UNIX 3.2.0 systems working just fine with dialin and out on
the same line.

There are some weird things - then device name in inittab must match
the entry in Devices (i.e no /dev or both have /dev in them) and if
you select B38400 you get B0 which causes a hangup !
