Hi, Tom!

There are *two* relevant options in the kernel config:
[*] /dev file system support (EXPERIMENTAL)
[*]   Automatically mount at boot

(These are called CONFIG_DEVFS_FS and CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT in your .config
file)

If you have checked the first but not the second adding "devfs=mount" to your
kernel commandline in menu.lst will help.

If you haven't even checked the first one you'll have to recompile the kernel
to get devfs (if so check both options :).

No, actually I know that understanding Linux is not the easiest thing to do
:)

I can imagine :)

Good Luck then,
