Disable onboard COM1 and configure new  serial to be com1

Asked by aduhwale in Linux Administration, Miscellaneous Hardware

Tags: Redhat, Linux, 7.3, Comm port

Hello Experts.  I have a linux box with Redhat 7.3 installed and running a billing software.  It writes its data to com1 to a windows machine which then produces the bill.  It appears the com port is blown.  Would like to install an add on card and continue with this billing software sending to com1.  How do i configure linux to see the new addon card as com1?
