I would appreciate some help in getting my 386BSD system
to use the parallel port. There dosent seem to be any
reference to lpt1 in the GENERICISA kernel config file.
There is also no indication at boot time that the system
located a parallel port ( unlike com1, com2 and wd which
are all listed in the boot messages ).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
