On boot, it will copy any static device nodes from /etc/udev (or somewhere like that) to /dev. The "correct" thing to do would have been to write the appropriate udev rule, but since this sounds like a prototype board, a hack like /etc/udev might be approrate. --linas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
