On the normal hosts (non diskless), I have tmpfs mounted at /dev/shm, but /dev itself is on the normal filesystem. And when I call e.g. "pktsetup mycd /dev/cdrecorder", udev creates e.g. /dev/pktcdvd0 which did not exist before. So I guess this is a normal device in the /dev directory and not related to tmpfs? However, I now wonder if I couldn't use a tmpfs for /dev for the clients... hmm... -- Dipl.-Inform. Frank Steiner Web: http://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/~steiner/ Lehrstuhl f.
