Not only is there nothing in the /dev directory, but there is nothing in /etc/udev/ either. This leads me to believe I have an incomplete installation. Again, is there a script which handles the initial configuration? -- Hugh On Sun, 25 Jun 2006 10:01:29 -0700 Hugh Esco wrote: > Last week I built Debian Sarge on a Toshiba notebook.
