Here is an old mail which I posted to my multimedia mailing which

This is a quick and dirty trick  for linux mknod problem in freebsd.
How quick? I just literally slap this on the code...

I stuck this on linux_files.c 

int
linux_mknod(struct proc *p, struct linux_creat_args *args, int *retval)
{
    struct {
	char *path;
	int flags;
	int mode;
    } bsd_open_args;


    bsd_open_args.path = args->path;
    bsd_open_args.mode = args->mode;

    return mkfifo(p, &bsd_open_args, retval);
}
----
and in linux_sysent.c

extern int linux_mknod();

and change the mknod call to linux_mknod :
linux_sysent.c:    3, mknod,              /* 14 */
  to
linux_sysent.c:    3, linux_mknod,        /* 14 */

---

	Have fun,
