I cannot access  /dev/tty00 or  /dev/tty01  via  tip or cu (or with anything
else it appears) under  NetBSD-1.0

I have both  NetBSD-1.0 and NetBSD-0.9 and DOS on the same 486/33 machine
and only NetBSD-1.0 is unable to talk to the modem on  /dev/tty00.

Is there something I have overlooke? I realize I have not given tons of
info herein but if someone has time to help me out I will gladly supply all
the necessary info. I have even gotten to the the kernel code in com.c and
it fails on the  write(2)  call in  comwrite().

Appreciate any help, just pointing me in the right direction would be
sufficient as I don't mind hacking around.

regards,
