The problem is related to the device names. My dev() function creates a
device name from the major and minor and ubd was not considered. In fact I
know improved that function so that it will not return None if it fails.
BTW This function is only used for 2.4 kernels, 2.6 kernels were not
affected. Sorry for not fixing this earlier.
I would appreciate if you could try again. I added a devtest script that
shows what the function does.
Kind regards,
