It worked just fine in Windows 95.
Yes, it was during boot. I added the 0x80 flag to sio3 and saw the phase 3
error. When I commented out the check for phase 3 in /sys/i386/isa/sio.c
and remade the kernel, I didn't get the error (of course), but it
wouldn't work still. The lines I changed were:
/* EXTRA DELAY? */
failures[0] = inb(iobase + com_cfcr) - CFCR_8BITS;
failures[1] = inb(iobase + com_ier) - IER_ETXRDY;
failures[2] = inb(iobase + com_mcr) - mcr_image;
DELAY(10000); /* Some internal modems need this time */
/* if (idev->id_irq != 0)
* failures[3] = isa_irq_pending(idev) ? 0 : 1;*/
DELAY(1000); /* XXX */
failures[4] = (inb(iobase + com_iir) & IIR_IMASK) - IIR_TXRDY;
The irq was set with a jumper so I know it was correct. From the answers I got
from the list archives, I assumed that it was a UART problem. I guessed that
the normal 16550 wouldn't work with the 56k line, so they had developed a new
16550? to run it. Either that, or it was a 16550 emulation. (I had posted the
UART info in an message to the list, but I can't find it in the archives.)
