Compiling it for PC (windows) would take me bit of time to set up virtual linux 
along the compiler with all itty nity gritty pieces of development 
tools.Though, that is pretty correct way of double checking.

Regarding ttyAM1, I think that it is part of TS7300 or something, while TS7800 
uses ttyS0(1) ports. 

Yup, I disabled getty on ttyS1 but still get the same fault.

 Thank you Bretton
