^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  5) The SA1100 serial port had its major/minor numbers officially assigned::

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 31) You must create those inodes in /dev on the root filesystem used
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 32) by your SA1100-based device::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 33) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 34) 	mknod ttySA0 c 204 5
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 35) 	mknod ttySA1 c 204 6
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 36) 	mknod ttySA2 c 204 7
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 37) 	mknod cusa0 c 205 5
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 38) 	mknod cusa1 c 205 6
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 39) 	mknod cusa2 c 205 7
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 40) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 41) In addition to the creation of the appropriate device nodes above, you
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 42) must ensure your user space applications make use of the correct device
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 43) name. The classic example is the content of the /etc/inittab file where
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 44) you might have a getty process started on ttyS0.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 45) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 46) In this case:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 47) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 48) - replace occurrences of ttyS0 with ttySA0, ttyS1 with ttySA1, etc.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 49) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 50) - don't forget to add 'ttySA0', 'console', or the appropriate tty name
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 51)   in /etc/securetty for root to be allowed to login as well.
