The dasd driver these days automatically acquires more major
numbers when you go beyond 64 devices, though you will need
to make the /dev/dasd* device nodes yourself with mknod.
However if you talk about large number of volumes you probably
want to manage that in some way, and afaik LVM only works for
devices with the major number 94. So you would need to look
into md which may take a bit more to set up.
