Hello, If you're using a new kernel, why not give devfs a go? I've been using devfs for a while now, and it's never given me any problems. Whenever I get a driver installed, most of the time the proper device file appears in that directory. However make sure you have devfsd installed first! I've been using it for a while, and still don't know how to use the mknod command! Hope that helps, Wasim.
