Silly me. OK, > well, now it's loaded and I get: > > [root@rider dev]# raw /dev/raw/raw1 /dev/hdc > Cannot locate raw device '/dev/raw/raw1' (No such file or directory) What distro are you using? In order to have udev and raw working together, you need a new version of the raw userspace program (sorry, forgot about this until right now.) I know SuSE ships it in their distro, don't know about everyone else. Also, why use raw at all? It's depreciated, nasty code, which no one likes at all, and has no real-world use. It is also going to be ripped out of the kernel entirely one of these days. The only people who like it are people who want to create useless benchmarks... thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
