You're right; only two of the six (not four) serial ports seem to be
supported. This is what I'm trying to get around (EVERYONE'S software always
wants to be installed on the first two ports!) – a switch box is a
possibility, but I'd prefer to find something a bit more elegant. Is it not
possible to find the location in the overlay file that holds the address of
the port? All the other ports are identical in hardware and configuration;
only the address differs.
