Hey guys, I'm new to this whole physical computer thing. I'm doing a class assignment using Arduinos, Raspberry Pis, and Galileos, and hooking them all together. Anyway, when I asked my professor, he gave me the classic "I don't know". So here's my issue:
I was able to run sample circuits with the Arduino just fine, no error messages or anything. The issue came when I tried to attach a Galileo. Essentially, I'm sending the program to the Galileo board, which is just using the Arduino breadboard for simplicity. When I do that, I get an error

Of course, "Serial ports" under "Tools" is greyed out. I've searched the internet high and low for a solution and tried many, but to no avail. However, when I switch to using the Arduino board (in the exact [very simple] configuration), it works fine with no errors. So I figure it must be something with the Galileo. Any ideas?
