Im following the instructions as I read them, but *nada*. So, I must be mis-interpreting something... OK, I made sysfs, actually I added the line none /sysfs sysfs defaults 0 0 to /etc/fstab, and did a 'mount -a'. There is 'stuff' below this node. I built udev-0.2, and put udev in /sbin/udev I put /sbin/udev into /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug (replacing /bin/true) with echo /sbin/udev > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug doing a cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug shows that it is there. I have then plugged and unplugged a USB device and /udev does not appear. So I did a 'mkdir /udev'. Plug and unplug again. Still nothing. So, what am I missing??? [[ there are numerous messages in the /var/log/messages for each plug/unplug of the USB device ]] -- Reg.Clemens reg@dwf.com
