From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de-DE; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050717 Firefox/1.0.6 Description of problem: After bringing ISDN for a AVM B1 card to work (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=167291 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=139321) ttyI* devices aren't created by udev Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): udev-039-10.8.EL4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. bring ISDN for a AVM B1 card to work 2. setup mgetty for e.g. ttyI0 3. start mgetty Actual Results: Missing device avoid start of mgetty Expected Results: ttyI* devices are created Additional info: Create at least one reboot-static device in udev's devices directory: # mknod -m 0660 /etc/udev/devices/ttyI0 c 43 0 # chgrp uucp /etc/udev/devices/ttyI0
if no ttyI* devices are created, then the kernel has to be blamed, not to send out hotplug events and/or create sysfs entries for that device.
