You moust install the devfsd package and add "devfs=mount " (if you use |
| 11 |
the default kernel or you don't have set the AUTOMOUNT on boot option in |
| 12 |
your kernel) to your boot options. |
| 13 |
If you need devices that are not handled by devfs you can create them in |
| 14 |
/etc/devfs and the |
| 15 |
devfs start-script copies them after devfsd has started to /dev. |
| 16 |
Re/Storing of device permissions is on my ToDO list. |
| 17 |
I use devfs since a month or so without problems. |
