Hello All, fakeroot (as of today's unstable) fails to handle device files correctly, at least on my mips box. This means the d-i images have _regular_ files in /dev:
iris14:~/devel/debian-installer$ ls -l build/tmp/netboot/tree/dev/* -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 build/tmp/netboot/tree/dev/console build/tmp/netboot/tree/dev/rd: total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 0 build/tmp/netboot/tree/dev/vc: total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 1 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 2 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 3 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 ica2_ts csv 0 Nov 20 21:39 5 Of course, booting from them fails with "unable to open an initial console". Running "fakeroot mknod ..." shows the same problem. Has anybody else seen this, or is just my installation broken?
