On my old 1.3.2 system, I had the following in /dev:
md0 b 18 0
md0c c 18 128
From that, I could do:
mdconfig /dev/md0c 2048 &
to get a 1 meg memory disk.
Now however, mdconfig /dev/md0c 2048 & gives me:
ioctl: Invalid argument
I've checked that the major numbers are still correct, however something
has changed because this used to work fine....any ideas?
Thanks
Bruce Martin
