I figured out how to find the port using the following command sequence:
Code:
# Without hard drive connected
[****@****]$ ls -l /dev > f1
# With hard drive connected
[****@****]$ ls -l /dev > f2
[****@****]$ diff f1 f2
8c8
< drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 3320 Sep 11 13:21 char
---
> drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 3280 Sep 11 13:25 char
54c54
< crw-rw-rw-. 1 root tty 5, 2 Sep 11 13:24 ptmx
---
> crw-rw-rw-. 1 root tty 5, 2 Sep 11 13:25 ptmx
76d75
< drwxr-xr-x. 4 root root 80 Sep 11 13:21 serial
158d156
< crw-rw----. 1 root dialout 166, 0 Sep 11 13:21 ttyACM0
I was able to determine that it was connected at /dev/ttyACM0.
But I am running into the same problem I was having in Windows: The PuTTY terminal opens like it is connected but I can't type anything. 'Ctrl-Z' should bring up a prompt but it doesn't. The loopback test worked so there should be nothing wrong with the cable.
----- SOLVED -----
Ah!!! I had the TX and RX cables reversed, doh!
