Re: Re: Re: Re: OE build files

Hi Patrick,

Here are a few observations with your (20070211) image running

>is udev started correct ? are there some devices in /dev ?

So, we can see that udev is running...

And, that the nodes are made:

hda17 ircomm10 ircomm23 ircomm8 mtdblock1 snd vcsa1
hda18 ircomm11 ircomm24 ircomm9 mtdblock2 tty zero

root_at_x51v:/etc/init.d$ ls /dev/random
ls: /dev/random: No such file or directory

OK, so there are devices in /dev - just not your random one!

Just to put an idea forward, I unpacked the Angstrom cpio image, and saw that
you have made /dev/ as real directory, and it has all the nodes in it apart
from random. Should they be there ? Is it possible that udev could not create
it's nodes if they are there allready ?
