Yeah, under wince that's what I got too, no problem.

But now, I'm no longer under wince as I've installed LAB (back here: 
http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/angstrom-distro-users/2008-March/001569.html)

And, LAB stops at "start..." ...

So, if it's wince that brings up /dev/ttyUSB0 that explains why I'd lose 
any serial terminal (minicom) on /dev/ttyUSB0 with a reboot, wouldn't it?

So I guess I'm getting a bit lost, how can I post what's on my serial 
terminal to debug a hung LAB when my serial terminal goes down with a 
reboot?

As for what happens under Angstrom, I've yet to attain those heady 
heights...

[For over a week I've had "lab; invent freely; start..." staring at me 
from my ipaq without anywhere to go...]

Any ideas?

Regards,
Morgan.
