Hello, I need to create a device special file for an ethernet card in /dev. It appears that MAKEDEV cannot be used to do this. To do this manually with mknod, you need the major and minor device numbers. According to the man pages on mknod, there is supposed to be a file: /usr/src/sys/conf/device.architecture that contains this information. Unfortunatly, I can't find this file anywhere. Can you tell me where I can get this file or how I can get the major and minor device numbers for ed0? Thanks Kirk :)
