Hello Andrea, I have tried to add the line to my machine config: IMAGE_DEVICE_TABLES = "files/device_table-minimal.txt"
But this didn't help, then I looked a bit further and also tried to set the following: USE_DEVFS="0" VIRTUAL_RUNTIME_dev_manager = "mdev" Unfortunately this doesn't seem to change anything.
