1997-04-04 disks



hy.

i have written a new /etc/devinfo file for makedev from "Linux Allocated
Devices" 2.0.30 and 2.1.31 (linux/Documentation/devices.t*), because i
need bugfixes for a new release of isdnutils), and mailed a long patch
to bruce. with my new /etc/devinfo configuration you get 1100 devices
(the normal has ca. 600), but thats only +11 k (at least in my ext2fs). 

maybe you want to add at least some of the missing devices to base and
boot of 1997-04-04 :
X0R aztcd beep bpcd cm205cd cm206cd exttrp gscd hd[efgh]* hitcd hwtrap
initrd ippp* jbm loop* mcd md* modreq nsfd nst*[1am] optcd ram[0-7]
ramdisk relay16 relay8 rtc sd[abcdefgh][9-16] sequence2 sg[0-7] sjcd
socksys spx sr[0-7] st*[1am] tpqic* tty[13-63] ttyI[0-63] urandom vcs
vcs[13-63] vcsa vcsa[13-63] watchdog (size + 11 k in a ext2fs)

importand are only the *cd devices (if they are supported): 
aztcd, bpcd, cm205cd, cm206cd, gscd, hitcd, mcd, optcd, sjcd.

on the device disk i found:
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/aztcd.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/cdu31a.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/mcd.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/mcdx.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/sbpcd.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/sonycd535.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/gscd.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/cm206.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/optcd.o
lib/modules/2.0.29/cdrom/sjcd.o

so you will need these devices (current devinfo cannot create all
devices, eg. gscd). i cant check the root device now (i first need to 
reboot with to 2.0.30 so i have a loop device), perhabs someone can
check, that all device files are presend ? at least gscd will be
missing, i suggest.

regards andreas
