Hi Dadi again, |

You could use udev. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
You will need 2.6 kernel, and take out devfs support. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Remove all the entried in /dev/ (I suggest moving them, not deleting) |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
emerge udev, make some changes to your bootloader and reboot. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
That is a simplified method - you could look on the forums |
| 12 |
<forums.gentoo.org> or online for detailed instructions. |
