I want to use ser2net in Docker running on DietPi but need /dev/ttyUSB0 which is not available. There are 2 USB ports on my Pine A64, one of them has the serial to USB adapter I try to use.

How can I enable /dev/ttyUSB0 in DietPI?

Found the answer. I simply had to plug in the serial adapter and /dev/ttyUSB0 appeared. All good now. Not really strong in Linux as you can see 🙂
