Hello Marcus,
Thank you for correcting me. Being unintentionally old-fashioned, I had devfs 
in my kernel. Removed now, and an `apt-get install udev' instead. I assume 
it's as simple as that, confirmed partially by this:
# ls -l /etc/rcS.d/ | grep "udev"
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root  14 2005-01-08 13:43 S04udev -> ../init.d/udev
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root  19 2005-01-08 13:43 S36udev-mtab 
-> ../init.d/udev-mtab

Please correct me if I am wrong. And excuse me for using your thread, Wendy.

Regards, Anders Breindahl.
