I found another detail. I commented out getty of ttyAM1 in inittab and  
disconnect JP4. After booting into TS-Linux, i could not send text over ttyAM1 
initially. But if i manually ran "/sbin/getty -i -L 115200 ttyAM1" (the login 
prompt appeared on the minicom on my PC), then I killed the running getting 
process, i could send text successfully after that. getty actually did 
somethings to configure ttyAM1. But do I have to configure ttyAM1 before using 
ttyAM1 because i think TS-Linux does during booting process? What exactly does 
getty do with the serial port?
Thank you very much.

Regards,
Huy
