Package: makedev Version: 2.3.1-75 Followup-For: Bug #278237
Well... I, too did encounter a problem with some 'ub' devices not existing, when they sort-of kind-of needed to exist. So, I searched the google db. Upon what I found, I'd tried 'mknod' with the 125 major number (based upon info from the web - accidental "misinformation" it is, apparently - just "FYI"). 125 didn't work. Then, I found this nicely helpful page: http://kerneltrap.org/node/4538 In summary: According to one user's 'devfs' settings, and based upon my own experience, after having read that page (it is working, here, now) it appears that the correct major number (for the 'ub' block devices) is, in fact: 180 "It's all good" now, here. So, I just wanted to pass the word along, about this, for my own 2 cents in this whole groovy "Debian users/maintainers/folks experience" and ... that's the end of it.
