<title>Creating devices</title>

<para>Please note that unpacking the MAKEDEV-&makedev-version;.bz2 file
|
|
doesn't create a directory for you to <userinput>cd</userinput> into, as
|
|
the file contains one shell script.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Install the MAKEDEV script:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>bzcat MAKEDEV-&makedev-version;.bz2 > /dev/MAKEDEV
|
|
chmod 754 /dev/MAKEDEV</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Run the script to create the device files:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>cd /dev
|
|
./MAKEDEV -v generic-nopty</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If a device you need is missing, try running
|
|
<userinput>./MAKEDEV -v <device></userinput>. Alternatively, you may
|
|
create devices via the <emphasis>mknod</emphasis> program. Please refer to
|
|
the man and info pages of <emphasis>mknod</emphasis> if you need more
|
|
information.</para>
