Anyway, we use major:minor numbers for SA1100 serial > driver (that are 204:5). Why don't we use "ttySA" prefix then? That's > what different embedded build systems expect for populating /dev (f.e. > buildroot). In my experience, everything that is not ttyS is a bit confusing either when creating the devices in the roots, or when using the serial console in the kernel command line. So I will vote for ttyS. My 2 cents. -- Best regards, Florian Fainelli Email : florian@openwrt.org http://openwrt.org -------------------------------
