NO, that is what I meant by SAME - the same equipment (i.e. the SAME RAM or 
ROM loader on my Microprocessor board and or flash).

But yes serial apps are different, but like I said then, it is a Linux thing 
- not my loader.
Windows is Hyperterminal. Linux - is just a straight CAT and redirect to 
ttys0, OR using text file transfer in MINICOM.  So it is still a linux issue 
- not the hardware, or the loader on the hardware I am using.
