Modem device file

[Jeff_Traigle]

I had a question about GSP/tty problems on an rp2430 that got moved to the server forum. Yesterday, I discovered thet problem was with the device file we were trying to use and how the OS assigned it.

The last entry, repeated below for convenience, is this:

"In dinking around with it some more, I went into SAM and did an Add Modem. It created /dev/ttyd1p2 (minor number 0x010212) as the device file... every other rp2430 we have has /dev/tty0p2 as the modem port on the GSP. (minor number 0x00200, which they actually mv to /dev/tty00 for historical script reasons.) What would cause the device file to be created differently on this system?"
