The SA1100 serial port had its major/minor numbers officially assigned:> Date: Sun, 24 Sep 2000 21:40:27 -0700> From: H.

Note that device numbers 204 and 205 are used for "low density> serial devices", so you will have a range of minors on those majors (the> tty device layer handles this just fine, so you don't have to worry about> doing anything special.)> > So your assignments are:> > 204 char        Low-density serial ports>                   5 = /dev/ttySA0               SA1100 builtin serial port 0>                   6 = /dev/ttySA1               SA1100 builtin serial port 1>                   7 = /dev/ttySA2               SA1100 builtin serial port 2> > 205 char        Low-density serial ports (alternate device)>                   5 = /dev/cusa0                Callout device for ttySA0>                   6 = /dev/cusa1                Callout device for ttySA1>                   7 = /dev/cusa2                Callout device for ttySA2>If you're not using devfs, you must create those inodes in /devon the root filesystem used by your SA1100-based device:	mknod ttySA0 c 204 5	mknod ttySA1 c 204 6	mknod ttySA2 c 204 7	mknod cusa0 c 205 5	mknod cusa1 c 205 6	mknod cusa2 c 205 7In addition to the creation of the appropriate device nodes above, youmust ensure your user space applications make use of the correct devicename. The classic example is the content of the /etc/inittab file whereyou might have a getty process started on ttyS0.  In this case:- replace occurences of ttyS0 with ttySA0, ttyS1 with ttySA1, etc.- don't forget to add 'ttySA0', 'console', or the appropriate tty name  in /etc/securetty for root to be allowed to login as well.
