Hi, I've experimented this when I've rebuilt my world just after the announce of 4.7-RC. mergemaster asked me if I wanted to run MAKEDEV since it had changed. I think it's this which broke up /dev/null, then i re-runed sh ./MAKEDEV and everything was fine :)
I don't know if my second run of MAKEDEV solved the problem (maybe it was fixed before I run it again, I don't exactly know) -- Aurélien On Thu, Oct 03, 2002 at 12:25:15PM -0700, Firsto Lasto wrote: > > If you run a jail, and inside that jail is a /dev with the file /dev/null > in it, the normal 0666 permissions of /dev/null will often get changed to > 0600. > > I cannot see any reason why this would happen - I thought maybe there was > something in /etc/rc that would do it, but there is not.
