The default is 2 devices. I can not imagine why there should be a 99 device
limit, there is one such limit in net/core/dev.c:dev_alloc_name, but imq
doesn't use that function. I can't really imagine alloc_netdev calling
dev_alloc_name
because the caller chooses it's own name, but i haven't checked. if you want
to make sure, change dev_alloc_name to support more than 100 devices
(trivial)
and try again. Please inform me in case of success.
Bye,
Patrick
