[Bcc re@ in case i need to commit a fix]

i think the snippet of code below (from etc/MAKEDEV) should not use $unit,
because the goal is to create a /dev/usb entry.
It works now because it normally happens to be called with $unit unset,
but this is not always the case.

Same bug is also in -stable.


1.220        (n_hibma  17-Nov-99): usb)
1.237        (n_hibma  21-Jan-00):      mknod usb$unit c 108 255 root:operator
1.237        (n_hibma  21-Jan-00):      chmod 0660 usb$unit
1.179        (n_hibma  03-Jan-99):      ;;

Should i commit the [trivial] fix which is remove $unit from both lines ?

	cheers
