Fix: When using udev, only the device nodes needed are made. The follow patch changes Xend to return a device number based on: http://www.lanana.org/docs/device-list/devices.txtFor sd and hd devices if stat() fails. It was tested against both 2.0.2and 2.0.3. Another solution is to tell udev to automatically create /dev/sda1 every time it gets started: # mknod /etc/udev/devices b 8 1When udev starts, all device files inside /etc/udev/devices are automatically copied to /dev, with no further configuration or triggering of hotplug or coldplug events. NOTE: This is what I use for VMware, which needs a lot of /dev/vm* devices to function properly: I moved all VMware-specific device files into /etc/udev/devices so when udev starts, those files are copied back to /dev. ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
