I have these modules loaded. OSS compatibily was working before I switched to
udev for /dev. The problem is that these modules don't export their devices
under /sys so udev doesn't make device nodes for them.
I'm missing three classes of devices so far:
1) ALSA OSS compatibilty
2) floppies
3) sitX, network tunnel
The script for recreating /dev is in /dev called MAKEDEV. I couldn't find it
because udev was masking /dev.
I used the gentoo permission file. It has enough permissions in it that Fedora
will work. There probably needs to be a specific one built for Fedora.
I've also checked that you can boot with a single console device in /dev.
mknod /dev/console c 5 1
