Howdy!
I ordered sheevaplug box and read as much as I could,
regarding controlling this little node from bsd box.
Seems that cu works fine on linux, but module should
be loaded to enable serial emulation from usb host port
to mini usb port on sheevaplug. Does someone use this
mini computer and how connects to serial console?
Almost all of documetation mentions win and linux. I
suppose would be pretty easy to go further with serial
line available.
Btw, there is freebsd port for this plug already. Would
be fine to try it out.

Hi,
I have 2 of them and cu works fine.
As root you can do this. The serial-over-usb provides you with 2 serial
devices. The second one is the console. The first is the JTAG interface to
flash the bios.
# cu -l cuaU1 -s 115200
The device number in cuaU1 is depending on how many serial devices you
have over usb.
When you plug the serial-over-usb in you should see something like these
lines in dmesg/messages.
