It seems to me the debian kernel should have > CONFIG_DEVFS_FS=n. Some people want devfs. Devfs can't be created as a module. Hence, the logical choice is to build the kernel with devfs support. Nothing's forcing you to use devfs, even if your kernel has devfs support, and the overhead is not very much. -- Dave Carrigan ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | Yow!
