Where are the drive dev nodes??? rc6-r9 iso boots ok on my AHA-2940UW system. Fdisk and mkreiserfs can't find the drives. When I look in /dev the only entries for the SCSI devices are: /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/targetX/lun0 where X=0,1,5,6 for my 2 HD's and CD's. Can't use these device entries to access the drives with fdisk or mkreiserfs. I seem to remember on rc5 that there was a /dev/disk/... set of nodes what had the partitions. Is there anyway to create these nodes in the iso image shell? thanks, scott worley folokai@earthlink.net
