Devfs is not going to be the solution, that much is clear. It's deprecated in 2.6 and in general enjoys the positive reputation of ebola in most of the kernel community. For 2.4 /proc/misc allows you to get away without devfs, something that'll also work with 2.6. In a more general context it looks like udev is going to be the official successor of devfs. > At the moment, I'll see about putting a hack in the scripts to recreate > /dev/lcd at boot. Ralf
