View Serial Console in Minicom

[Greg Treantos]

I would like to setup a Pi Zero W serial connection on a system to run Clonezilla. I have the boot parms setup and it works in putty but minicom fails to render. While I know this isn't a Clonezilla issue per se I was wondering if anyone has thoughts on getting minicom to render properly. Nothing I have searched for seems to work. I also tried screen which also fails.

Maybe it's easier to use screen for this purpose, instead of minicom. E.g.,
sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200

It turned out I had Pi console configured. I had to remove
console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 from cmdline.txt and that fixed all my
issues with minicom and screen.. I also disabled bluetooth in the pi which
can conflict with my setup. Thanks for the reply.
