Hi, I grabbed a 2.6.13.2 kernel off kernel.org and built it with these options:
CONFIG_EXT2_FS=y
CONFIG_EXT2_FS_XATTR=y
CONFIG_EXT3_FS=y
CONFIG_EXT3_FS_XATTR=y
CONFIG_INOTIFY=y
But when I boot, I don't get a /dev/inotify device.
Things relating to inotify appear in /proc/sys/fs/inotify/, but that's
the only place. There is nothing even mentioned in /var/log/dmesg as
is suggested there should be in various places around the net. Nothing
in syslog or messages either.
What have I missed? Do I need to tweak anything in udev settings to make
this device appear?
Creating it by hand (mknod c 10 63 -- 63 seems to be the minor number
that most sites give, but they say that the actual number should appear
in dmesg) just creates a a handy "no such device" device.
Any suggestions?
cheers
