Hi, I'm looking at a very small problem on my new Gentoo kernel where I get the message while booting
modprobe: can't locate module /dev/rtc From googling around it appears that the recommended solution to this (comment if you disagree) is to compile enhanced rtc support into my kernel (it's not in there right now) AND to create /dev/rtc using the mknod command with a major number 10 and a minor number 135. It may be that I don't really need to create the QUESTION 1: Is this correct? mknod /dev/rtc 10 135 Or do I need to add the c option since it says make a 'character' special file? mknod /dev/rtc c 10 135 QUESTION 2: Is there a way to see the major and minor numbers, along with the type of device an existing character or block special file is once it exists in /dev? I cannot find the sort of intuitive 'lsnod' command. How does one make sure that the major minor numbers don't trample on each other? Thanks in advance, Mark -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
