No one should ever be calling 'mkdir' in /sys. > At boot time I get a error message that states my modem > /sys/class/net/modem0/file is missing.

This appears to be a udev issue. No, /sys is "special". It's a kernel virtual filesystem and userspace can not create files in it. So please file a bug about some script looking for a file that isn't present in sysfs. thanks, greg k-h --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
