Yep, something is deleting it. Something with permissions to delete it, which shouldn't be many things. First make sure that it has the correct permissions, then check what's running as root. You might be able to find a process that has a file handle open on /dev/null or even on /dev itself, but I'd consider that a long shot. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Missing /dev/null after few min
Hello, I'm running freebsd for couple of years now and never had really big problems but this one I can't solve on my own. Running releng 7 for 6 months now but recently after running X for like 10min the systems is missing /dev/null. So you can imaging that most programs start complaining about it. Right now I recreate it with mknod /dev/null c 1 3 but that's not a real solution because it starts to disappear again after few minutes. I'm for 99% sure it's not freebsd problem but more a application problem but I wonder if anyone ran into the same trouble after upgrading xyz port? Or even better has a solution for it?

Harddisk seems to be gone
HI, I am a user of freebsd for couple of year now and had recently made a fresh install with 6.2. Everything worked as it always did but as i booted the system today it seems that the kernel couldnt find my harddisk. Strange thing is: - I get the bootloader (dual boot with windows) - windows works just fine - I can access all my files on the hd through the bootloader - the kernel boots of the harddisk and finds the (s)ata-controllers - it finds the cdrom attachet to the ata0 - it finds my sata disk but my first pata disk seems to be gone. The bootscript ends because there is no ad0 (dev isnt created so cant do manualy) I tried to boot 2 live-cdroms (freesbie and frenzy) with the same result. System: Nforce 4 motherboard AMD X2 4600+ 1GB ram GF 7900tgo PATA Maxtor hd (which is gone) SATA WD (works fine) Anyone got any idea whay might cause this?
