Hi group, this is my first post here, I'm currently building XPe images
with 'Add New Hardware' and a GUI for the sole purpose of setting up serial
ports in non-pnp hardware (Diamond Systems Jupiter MM-SIO PC/104 board). I
know the I/O and IRQ of the two additional serial ports, and have to
manually add the serial ports after FBA, which is no problem, but I would
like to have this built into my image so I can get rid of the GUI elements
completely.

My question: Can I add serial ports to the Target Designer or through
component designer? How would I do this?

Thanks for any advice you can give,
-Corey

Corey,

Please save this link in your favorites. It may help you in future while you are with XPe:

There is no "easy" way to add serial ports info in TD. However, you can either use devcon utility
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q311272) at run time or automate it using FBA Generic Commands, or you can
change msports.inf in your build to reflect the settings you need.
Some more info you can read through this thread:
