I had discovered the file ~/.pi-addressrc in with you can write

DeviceName = /dev/term/b

and then you don't need the link!

But it did not work either with the link or with the ini file. Finally I
discoverd that if I had something else on /dev/term/b when I pressed
R and after that changed cable then it worked! I had the console to my
Cisco 775 there and with this change of cabels it worked! I had the
same kind of problem with PilotMgr earlier. It think that this problem
only is on SS5 and not on U1 (I never that this problem on my U1 at
work).

Thanks, this also works not if I do the cabel change.
