Very good information here. After much experimenting and turning off hardware flow control in my hyperterminal and in minicom, (I also encountered the doesn't change devices issue) I was able to get a hello world from one machine to the other.
Upon this success, I have now gotten the device communicating in LFS with the serial device and am up and running! Thank you Michael, this will be great information in the mailing list for the next poor sap!
