Oliver,

The external debug console is connected to the only hardware UART on
/dev/ttyAMA0 . I assumed you want to re-purpose that.  UART pinouts: Pin 8
TxD & Pin-10 RxD.  See "Serial port" at http://www.arbetsmyra.dyndns.
org/nard/advance.html Read about console server product for tutorial.


Python 2.7 can be built on NARD,  reference:  http://www.arbetsmyra.dyndns.
org/nard/extending.html . I suspect Python 3.4 may be more of a problem.

You may want to verify that your Ralink RT5370 works on NARD, at least as
an AP. My sample is close to working but not there yet.  Drivers seem to be
loaded, which are provided in the image. The RT5370 is not a priority at
all for me as I have other models working.

Please be aware that there is a learning curve involved in using NARD.
The way to climb the learning curve is to work through some of the
examples, even if not directly related to your project. Get familiar with
the nard directory structure and where the Makefile gets things and puts
things.  Learn to add a product.  Best way to learn is by doing.



Hang in there,

Dennis
