I’m sorry, but I don’t understand how use picocom to send a request/command to the device. Official doc: http://linux.die.net/man/8/picocom
I want to be IN the OS I reach, I connect to an Arduino YUN using linux OS inside and I want to be root on it, it’s probably easy, I’m already connected but I don’t understand what I have to do!
vado@ubuntu:~$ picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyACM0 picocom v1.4 port is : /dev/ttyACM0 flowcontrol : none baudrate is : 115200 parity is : none databits are : 8 escape is : C-a noinit is : no noreset is : no nolock is : no send_cmd is : ascii_xfr -s -v -l10 receive_cmd is : rz -vv Terminal ready
Terminal ready and I can do nothing, I can’t entering command line or whatever. I tried to do ce escape think with C-a but I don’t understand at all how enter C-a…
Need help, please. Thank you.

Answer
With picocom you can communicate to a serial device.
Once you open it, you have something similar to the arduino serial monitor but every character you type is directly sent to the arduino.
You can use putty if you don’t like picocom commands.
The escape commands C-a means: CRTL+A
To quit picocom, first press CRTL+A followed by a regular x.
