Near the bottom of the rc.local delivered with sunOS4.0.1:
+=======================================================================
+ #     Loadable drivers get loaded here.
+ cd /etc/modules
+ 
+ # cg5 accelerated frame buffer driver
+ modload cgfive.o -exec cgfive.script
+ 
+ # Uncomment the line below to load the AT serial port driver.
+ #modload ats.o -exec ats.script -conf ats_conf && chat 'AT serial port driver.'
+ 
+ #
+ # We know that the above two drivers can safely run with kernel paging
+ # enabled, so we re-enable kernel paging now.
+ /usr/etc/kernpage on
+=======================================================================

check the manual page for modload, modunload, modstat.

the sun386i comes with a generic IBM clone driver for COM1: and COM2:

On the other hand, I want 19200 out of the additional port(s) I add
and have not found any IBM PC serial boards supporting this. I am
interested in any information on single or multiport boards, with or
without drivers.
