Quick instructions for installation:

1. Change to the minicom-$VERSION directory.
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
2. ./configure (see ./configure --help for options)
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
3. make
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
4. make install
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
5. minicom -s (for changing /etc/minicom you probably need to run it as root)
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
Change what should be changed on your system, and choose
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
'Save setup as dfl' from the configuration menu to save the
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
changed settings as system defaults.
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
Now add every user which should be allowed to use minicom to
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
the group of the corresponding character devices (e.g. /dev/ttyS0).
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
On Debian this group already exists and is called 'dialout'.
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
|
|
Packit |
15a96c |
Now you should have minicom compiled, installed and ready to use.
