Hi
Setting up a new system here but it has 1 com port on it.
Normaal I use 2 comports to make a loopback
There must be a way to make a pseudo device and make a loop with them
But I can remember (and with google) how to setup
Running kernel 2.6 here

You can use a pair of linked pseudo ttys, such as /dev/ptyp0 (master)
and/dev/ttyp0 (slave). You must always open master side firt.
Here is an example of how to use pseudottys to link jnos to the linux
kernel via slip.
