The Linux kernel serial driver allows you to specify the number of UARTs 
to auto-detect.  Normally the default is four.  Thus, it's stopping 
after it finds two on your IQ Express because it already found two 
others on the mainboard (ttyS0, ttyS1).

So in your /etc/grub.conf file on the "kernel" line at the end put an 
additional parameter:  8250.nr_uarts=32

Then reboot.  That should do it for you.

Thanks,

Lee.
