I've just started on it - I have a package that works and provides devfsd, and a script that is a modified version of rc.devfs that runs on boot and shutdown. I think I'm going to need to rearrange it into three packages though, devfs, a kernel patch package, and devfsd in a seperate package. That way people can use the devfs state save/restore script even if they don't need devfs. My work in progress is at http://www.cosanostra.net/~fnord/devfs/, for any who are interested in playing with it. A short explanation of how I plan to package it all up is on the web site. -- Elie Rosenblum That is not dead which can eternal lie, http://www.cosanostra.net And with strange aeons even death may die.
