I don't know about "nomount devfs" - the line I've used is this... > 6 edit /etc/lilo.conf and add append=" devfs=nomount" to your default > linux boot entry (run lilo at the prompt to make the change take effect > at next boot). An easy way you can check whether devfs is disabled is by whether there is a bunch of entries under /dev/usb. There should be a couple dozen things including ttyUSB0 through ttyUSB15 if devfs has really been disabled. If there is nothing then devfs is most likely still enabled. -- Mike Rambo [EMAIL PROTECTED]
