Message-ID: <401F1A29.80107@kevino.org> (raw)
Hello all,
I was reading the thread subject=(error message interpretation
help?) and the reference to "devfs". I have a stock installation of
MDK9.2 and my understanding is that "devfs" is in the kernel or
(module maybe?) by default.
I should say right off the bat that I am a major newbie so bare with
me. I've heard complaints about "devfs" before, for one thing the
naming convention I noticed on my "df" output alittle long and hard
to read for instance.
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5
380M 115M 246M 32% /
Someone told me that was because I had "devfs" I did some reading
and I think I can change that part on my system with
/etc/devfsd.conf but my question is do I really need "devfs" and if
not how can I remove it or disable it, and do I need to replace it
with something else?
