AFAIK DEVTMPFS is not a module. You either turn it on or off. Of course, you'll need a whole-kernel compile, but that's it. If you use menuconfig, IIRC there's another option right under DEVTMPFS' one that offers to mount devtmpfs on boot. If you turn that on, you *might* get away without a /dev in fstab. Rgds,
