Re: Bug#38062: hurd: MAKEDEV does only understand 9 partitions
I have hacked on the MAKEDEV script. It is now more flexible is disk
device/slice/partition names it will accept. I've also fixed the
"/dev/./console" bug. This script no longer allows directory names in the
arguments. To run it someplace other than /dev, you need to do:
# cd /otherdisk/dev
# MAKEDEV --devdir=/dev std
It always makes devices in the current directory. Some devices such as
terminal devices (including console) need to embed the full name of the
device file in the translator setting (this is the name of the device file
as it will be used in the running system). The --devdir option controls
what goes there--it defaults to `pwd`, so make sure you have the right
directory for when these devices will actually be used.
This version is checked in to cvs in AFS, but is not in the anoncvs mirror yet.
I attach the script here (sutils/MAKEDEV.sh); you can just install this
directly as /sbin/MAKEDEV (/dev/MAKEDEV is a symlink to that).
#!/bin/sh

EXEC="" # Change to ":" to suppress command execution.
