Subject: Rename Sibyte duart devices?
Date: Mon, 3 Dec 2007 13:08:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071203130818.GA6466@linux-mips.org> (raw)
Devices created by udev have been named duart? instead of the common
ttyS?. This is a nuisance because it requires changes to all sorts of
config files such as /etc/inittab, /etc/securetty etc. to work. I
suggest to kill the problem by the root by something like the below
patch. Comments?
Ralf
