I am trying to install OPIE on an old Ipaq 3630 but I don't have a
serial connector. I read on the net that a USB connection can now be
used (http://www.handhelds.org/hypermail/familiar/171/17155.html).

I have already installed the bootloader. I now need minicom to talk to
the Ipaq via usbserial.

An lsmod shows that usb serial is running:
...
usb-uhci               25964   0 (unused)
usbcore                78368   1 [usbserial hid usb-uhci]
ext3                   70532   2
jbd                    51732   2 [ext3]

However, when I change the Serial Device in minicom to /dev/ttyUSB0, I
get the error message:
minicom: cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such device

Am I missing something?
