Ok, thanks. But in this devfs twilight zone, when it's not recommended to use
devfs it would be great.
Hey, I fixed this myself. It turned out that the whole scheme has changed
(check loop.c), it's dynamic now :)
-----------------------------------------------------
grep loop /etc/modules.conf
options loop max_loop=128
grep loop /etc/lilo.conf
append=" devfs=nomount max_loop=128"
-----------------------------------------------------
This works great!
