The file "Documentation/devices.txt" that comes with the 2.4 Linux
kernel shows the following device number range:

240-254         LOCAL/EXPERIMENTAL USE

I propose that LiS base its major device numbers at 240 by default.
Maybe, in 2.6, they will expand the numbering space and we can get a
block assigned to us.  Right now I am hesitant to even ask since the
first available number is now 226 and the limit it 255.  These numbers
are starting to get precious.
