Re: [Gumstix-users] Having trouble following setting up Overo for console session

[AJ O. <coo...@gm...>]

If you're going to be doing development you really need to get yourself the
software that will facilitate that.

If you use Windows you're going to be spending hours trying to figure out
how to do things that ought to take minutes to do.

Just get an Ubuntu VM or use a Mac. Then you can open up a terminal and get
rolling no problem.


I don't think you need Kermit. I think you can just use putty in serial mode
with the baud rate and other settings set in putty. I may be mistaken.

I've used kermit on Linux and Mac, but I've also used minicom on a similar
system so I don't think it's anything too particular.
