I'm only working with 2.6.16.16. anyway. As I just started with the pkt-writing module, I noticed another strange behaviour (at least, it seems strange to me, but YMMV), and I wonder if this is has already been fixed in some -git or -mm prepatch or snapshot or subsubsub-release-canditate ... says: - Setup your writer # pktsetup dev_name /dev/hdc Therefore, I do "pktsetup node0 /dev/hdc", which gives: # pktsetup node0 /dev/hdc ctl open: Not a directory strace shows that pktsetup is trying to open /dev/pktcdvd/control, which it cannot, since /dev/pktcdvd is a char device obviously created upon "modprobe pktcdvd". The char device has major 10 minor 63, which seems to be missing in devices.txt. Once I remove the char-device, pktsetup will work and create /dev/pktcdvd/control and /dev/pktcdvd/node0. Now I try to figure out how the rest of "packet-writing.txt" works ... kind regards, h.rosmanith
