Hi there, 

I'm trying to get linux working with XDA2... 
At the moment, I use HARET to boot the kernel, but I encounter some
problems. 

1. USB Serial Connection is breaking when booting the new kernel. I
wouldn't have assumed anything different. But the Xda-Developers
tutiorials shows how to connect via that virtual port.

2. I can use the real serial port to redirect Kernel Output until it
says: "Login:"
I'm using minicom to get the output. But I can't enter the username. I'm
sure that I use correct port settings, is there anything special with
the connection to the XDA2? Should I use another Application to login?
What's wrong with my serial input line? 

Can somebody tell me how to use the Serial port via other Terminals?
(Linux shell commands are highly appreciated.) 

Thanks in advance for some hints!

Edit: 
I also tried to compile custom kernel, but after haret switches to the
dark screen (after showing the linux logo with splashed eyes :)), it
isn't redirecting any output to PC.


Gruß,
Ole Loots
