Robert, thank you - yes I should be able to use them directly, of course.

Except I have __NOT__ been able to!

My ubuntu distro has no /boot/uEnt.txt in the FAT partition.

Instead the /boot/uEnv.txt appears in the linux filesystem partition and 
does not do anything at boot time, obviously.

I have manually created a /boot/uEvnt.txt on the FAT partition after 
booting from eMMC, using

cat /proc/cmdline > /boot/uEnv.txt

and then then added the capemgr  enable/disable lines:

console=ttyO0,115200n8 quiet drm.debug=7 
root=UUID=4c074e4e-40e6-43ad-a0a1-52113ea40176 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait 
fixrtc quiet
capemgr.disable_partno=BB-BONELT-HDMI,BB-BONELT-HDMIN
capemgr.enable_partno=BB-UART2,BB-UART5

After rebooting a "ls /dev/ttyO*"  (that's tty-"capital-oh" not zero) 
returns only:

/dev/ttyO0

and

root@arm:/home/ubuntu# cat /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.9/slots
 0: 54:PF---
 1: 55:PF---
 2: 56:PF---
 3: 57:PF---
 4: ff:P-O-L Bone-LT-eMMC-2G,00A0,Texas Instrument,BB-BONE-EMMC-2G
 5: ff:P-O-L Bone-Black-HDMI,00A0,Texas Instrument,BB-BONELT-HDMI

Thanks again,
