Yes, devfs is a requirement at the moment. If you need to go to 2.6 to get devfs working, that'd be fine. We're working on a tool that'll let you use a kernel you already have - for that to work, the devfs dependency will need to be removed, since not all distro kernels have devfs enabld. This doesn't mean devfs support will be removed, but that we'll need to handle both (and future; i.e., udev) cases. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
