Hello, I have came across this RS-485 tutorial, but I am farily new to this 
and I need some clarifications. 

I am currently running the latest Debian image on my beaglebone black


>> Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone70 #1 SMP Fri Jan 23 02:15:42 UTC 2015 armv7l

I am kinda lost on where to find this special tty file (is it from some 
.dts file?), and where to put the serial_rs485 struct. Can someone guide me 
through this process on how to do this?

Thanks.
