Hello,

Anyone out there using devfs?? I recently patched my kernel (2.2.14) and
configured it to use devfs. I built and installed devfsd, then rebooted
the machine. At startup, the kernel reports than devfs is mounted on
/dev.... all seems well to this point.

Once init starts, I see messages like this;

:
Cleaning: /tmp /var/lock /var/run
chmod: /dev/tty[p-za-e][0-9a-f]: No such file or directory
chown: /dev/tty[p-za-e][0-9a-f]: No such file or directory
:
:

<sit and wait a while - maybe 5 minutes>

<sit and wait a while again>

What am I missing here?? My /etc/devfsd.conf file is unchanged from that
which came in the tar archive with devfsd, it appears to be configured
to enable full compatibility mode, is this correct?? 

Any pointers appreciated,

Shaun
