Presumably I can find a comparable board (bless Computer Shopper's heart);
would some kind soul please e-mail me or post a summary of how to tell UNIX
about COM3/COM4; which files to enter their ports and irqs, etc?  I don't
see it in my sysadmin users guide or reference manual...

Eternal gratitude can be yours!
(Thanks, David, for pointing the right direction!  I tried to email you
this question, but of course the mail bounced...)
