Is there any existing documentation (mini-HOWTO?) for converting from a
2.2 kernel with a normal /dev to a 2.4 with devfs active.
What changes do I have to make to /etc/fstab?
How can I make the changes compatible (for backout)?
What kernel options can I pass to control devfs?

Dougie,

names would be the way to go if you want to be able to flip-flop between

If you do that, beware of attaching disks from other Linux systems. Many times
I've attached a root disk from

level directory, and do a make menuconfig. Go into file systems and
turn off devfs support,

Read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/devfs/README
I tried do this but with no success.

I am trying to upgrade my SLES 2.4.7 kernel to 2.4.17. I have followed the
procedure in the HOW-TO from linuxvm.org and in the Linux on zSeries and
S390: Systems Management Redbook. When I try to boot the new kernel I get
the following errors:

Most likely it is devfs - mount on boot is enabled by default in the
kernel patches, which means /dev gets replaced with the dynamically generated
devfs which doesn't have dasd in the same place.
