I know you've figured out MAKEDEV now, but just some info on doing it the hard way: mknod /dev/psaux c 10 1 general form mknod [OPTION]... NAME TYPE [MAJOR MINOR] you can get the major and minor numbers from /usr/src/linuc/Documentation/devices.txt if you ever need to make a really strange device for some reason (or find yourself without and hardrive devices *and* without without MAKEDEV, don't laugh, if you administer a RH box and have to use the "rescue" mode of the CDROM this is exactly where you'll be!!) -Jon
