I do have /devfs enabled in the kernel and that is what I prefer to use. I have read the document on it as well and tried "mknod" for it at 188, but the devices I created I couldn't use... :-/ I know it's experimental right now, but I did assume it would make the nodes itself...anyway to kickstart the kernel to make that happen? Cause I take it as an indication that things aren't working right if devfs doesn't make devices for it.
