Version: 2.6-7
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
After dist-upgrading from sarge it failed to start with eror message:
vtund[2000]: Can't allocate tun device . No such file or directory(2)
The solution is to add the device. I think it should be done by
installation script.
#mkdir /dev/net
#mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200

Sorry, I'm sending the bug report not from the system, on which it
appears.
kernel 2.6.8-2-386
udev is installed
You're using an old kernel, you should update to a current one
(install linux-image-2.6-486). Udev can't be working on your machine,
as you can read in /usr/share/doc/udev/README.Debian.gz:
"The running kernel must be not older than 2.6.15 and must support the
hotplug subsystem (CONFIG_HOTPLUG) and tmpfs (CONFIG_TMPFS)."
That's why the package doesn't try to create the nodes, as with a
current kernel everything should work automatically.
Thank you very much!
