- Do you by any chance have a GVP SCSI adapter? If so, get hold of a
- utillity named GvpPatch (probably on Aminet), or buy a Guru ROM and run
- "GvpScsiCtrl SERIALPATCH". Then you should be able to run at least
- 38400.

- Another option is to invest in an I/O card like MutiFaceCard III or GVP
- IOExtender.
