Hi Gerard,
did you try to set CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y in your Kernel config ?
Cheers

Hello Andrea,
I have tried to add the line to my machine config:
IMAGE_DEVICE_TABLES = "files/device_table-minimal.txt"
But this didn't help, then I looked a bit further and also tried to
set the following:
USE_DEVFS="0"
VIRTUAL_RUNTIME_dev_manager = "mdev"
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to change anything.
Cheers,
Gerard

Hello Gerard,
if your old kernel lacks devtmpfs you need a "device table".
You need to set at least
IMAGE_DEVICE_TABLES = "files/device_table-minimal.txt"
This is a default set in image.bbclass before and after daisy...dunno
what's happened with this release.
Cheers
Andrea
