This means that the respective drivers don't use make_dev() to generate a proper dev_t for their use. I will look at thost two drivers tonight, I'm just finishing the floppy drivers clone() function. If you want to take a shot at it yourself it's quite simple: you need to call make_dev() somewhere, typically in *_attach to generate and name the dev_t for the function. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD coreteam member | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
