Re: Installing advices

Hi again, I've just installed SuSE 8.0 on the second HDD (new) on my WinXP machine, and it worked like dream. :-) Totally automatic. And I can still launch WinXP just like that. All I had to do was to switch the CD's on demand. A modem question though. The machine has one of these win modems on COM3. I'm not going to use this. I'm intending to use an external modem on COM1. In the references there are a device path to /dev/modem. This doesn't exist. There is only a directory called modems, containing just one file called wav-something. How do I solve this? Can I just make a file called modem, put in /dev and symlink it to /dev/ttyS0, or something? Any thoughts on this? Thanks, Thomas
