What does install-in-kernel do?  Does it add software to kernel source 
code that you can then compile into the kernel (or as module?).

I am very interested in your results.  In theory it should work with BL3 
2.2.26 'big' kernel and usb_serial.o, since our USB pda did (the same pda 
works with serial or usb cradle so the usb model must contain some sort of 
adaptor).  Make sure you get something supported by linux this time!
