FAS 2.06 mysterious missing TTYs

With a touch of net-help, I got FAS 2.06 to compile under ESIX. However,
none of the ports work. (ISA COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4) Today I even
retreated totally to just COM1 and COM2 on IRQ3 & 4, (totally stock)
and still no response on the ports.
The FAS driver at boot up indicates [****] ('all fine'). However,
as I spawn off the gettys on the ports, ps's TTY column (TTY owner or
such) shows a ?, indicating there is 'no controlling terminal?'
All, that is, except one getty. When I had fas controlling two ports,
the getty that was supposed to be running on ttyFM00 was showing ?,
and ttyFM01 was displayed. When I configured FAS to control 4 ports,
only ttyFM00 showed - all the other gettys were running on ?s.
No - it's not a hardware problem. I can configure 3 of the 4 ports with
ESIX's own asy driver configuration utility and they work fine. d
Thus I know I have my port addresses and IRQ lines right.
Any clues would be appreciated. Email preferably.
