mkdir /dev/usb 
mknod /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 c 188 0
mknod /dev/usb/ttyUSB1 c 188 1
cd /dev

ln -sf  /dev/usb/USB0 /dev/pilot
or
ln -sf  /dev/usb/USB0 /dev/pilot

findout which one to use by :
tail -f /var/log/messages  

Then plug in the palm hit sync and see which usb device it is trying to
use
chmod 666 /dev/usb/ttyUSB*

I will do a quick howto in morning given time.  But this will get you
up and running.
