The minicom configuration is for the computer that you are in front
of.  If you are getting an error that /dev/USB0 does not exist, this
error is on your workstation not the Alix or CF card.  "ls /dev/tty*"
will list all of your tty devices.  When you plug in your USB to
serial adaptor, "dmesg" might shed some light on what is happening.
