- Prereqs
+  opkg install coreutils-stty
-  opkg install  the following
-   coreutils-stty - 8.8-1 (lets you talk to serial ports)
-   kmod-usb-serial - 2.6.39.4-1 (base driver for USB serial ports)
- and your serial port driver, probably
-   kmod-usb-serial-cp210x (CP201x based USB/serial adapters)
-   kmod-usb-serial-pl2303 (PL2303 based USB/serial adapters
-   kmod-usb-serial-ftdi - (FTDI based USB/serial adapters, used in older Arduinos)
-   kmod-usb-acm (USB/serial adapters implementing the standardized USB CDC protocol, such as the Teensy or Arduino Uno)
-Can't hurt to install them all
