Hi Mikkel,
I think we need more information here. What did you upgrade from, and
how did you upgrade? I have two machines that I upgraded from 10.1 to
2005LE and I have not had any problems like this. One machine was an
upgrade using the install CDs, and the other was an upgrading using
urpmi and changing to 2005LE sources.
I upgraded from MDK 10.0. I upgraded using a DVD.
You should check that udev is running. (service udev status) If udev is
not running, you will have problems accessing most /dev/entries.
When I run that command I see:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] log]# service udev status
devfsd used instead of udev!!!
What can I do to make this work? (Running into loads of other problems,
for instance python 2.4 seems broken so my mail won't be downloaded...
pfff...)
Paul
To get udev working, you need to edit /etc/lilo.conf and add
"devfs=nomount" to the append line for the entry you use, and reboot. I
have:
mage=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux"
root=/dev/hda6
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="resume=/dev/hda9 splash=silent devfs=nomount"
vga=788
read-only
You will have a slightly different entry, but you can see how the
devfs=nomount entry is used.
