Or someone on one of the Debian lists likes to point out using MAKEDEV on a UDEV Filesystem should just delete all devices. And force a reboot or disaster or both. MAKEDEV in Debian is supposed to know about UDEV and refuse to make any. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* I've decided to become a perfectionist.

Post #159,063 by folkert 6/8/04 4:53:38 PM Reply	No, I just did... a second update for the day as I saw a bug I was going to report was fixed and this one showed up. I gave you the answer... for the fix. Run along little boy, go whine to your mama. Or on Jabber. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* I've decided to become a perfectionist.
