8. Use a micro-USB cable to connect the CONSOLE USB connector to a USB port
on your dev machine.
9. Open a terminal window on the dev machine—this window will be used to display
the target's console messages (kernel messages, warnings, etc.).
Note: Depending on your desktop, a terminal window may be opened using a keyboard
shortcut (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+T for the Ubuntu Unity desktop), or an icon or menu item.
10. Connect to the target's Linux console as follows:
a. In the terminal window, enter the following command to install the minicom
application on your dev machine (if it is not already there), and follow any
prompts that may appear:
$ sudo apt-get install minicom
Note: 'sudo' tells the dev machine to run the command as the 'superuser'. Each time
you use sudo, you must enter your dev machine's password to continue.
b. Connect to the target's Linux console via the USB serial port (which
enumerated when you connected the CONSOLE USB connector to the dev
machine):
$ minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0
A welcome message appears, and the window will show console messages
when the mangOH Red powers on in the next step.
