Well Daniel, Here's what I did to get rid of those error messages.....
In /sbin/init.d, there is a config file called serial. Basically, I changed the part
in the file that
read
SETSERIAL="/sbin/setserial -b"
PORTS=`echo cua*`
to read
SETSERIAL="/sbin/setserial -b"
PORTS=`echo ttyS*`
I wouldn't advise deleting the /dev/cua* files, but maybe first moving them into /tmp
and rebooting.
Still, those files are only 5 bytes each.....I don't think it would hurt your system
too bad to leave
them in, if only for compatability reasons ;)
