Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I installed FreeBSD 5.0-20000506-CURRENT on an AMD K6-2, 64Mb, 4Gb, and when I first launch /stand/sysinstall after the system has start, the following message appears : ... /kernel: WARNING: run /dev/MAKEDEV before 2000-06-01 to get rid of block devices I searched the list archives and find some informations about this, but nothing that helps me understand why I get this message. The only time it happens is when I use sysinstall for the first time after the PC has start. If I'm using sysinstall again without prior reboot, there's no such message. But if I reboot and use sysinstall again, the message shows up again. I ran MAKEDEV all, but the message still appear. The messages I found about this on the archives says to do a 'ls -l /dev | grep ^b', and to remake all devices listed, but there's no device listed when I'm doing the 'ls -l /dev | grep ^b'. Any idea about what could cause this message to come up ? Thanks, Erik de Zeeuw To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
