I'm getting there... devfsd starts and hangs on "Creating extra device nodes...". Looking at the script: for i in `sed -e '/^#/d' $DEVFILES 2>/dev/null`; do And playing with sed revels that at that moment in time $DEVFILES is empty, as I have no /etc/devfs/devices.list. That file in generated from the contents of /etc/devfs/devices.d, which is empty on my machine. I tried creating a null file (just a comment) but that gets stripped out by the code which populated $DEVFILES. :-( Does anyone have a sample file which I can drop into /etc/devfs/devices.d? Thanks, Ross Burton
