Has anyone successfully configured a system to use devfs under LFS. I'm
running:

Linux 2.4.1,
Glibc 2.1.3,
GCC 2.95.2,
Modutils 2.4.2,
Shadow 20000902,
and Net-Kit 0.17.

depmod, modinfo and insmod give me segmentation fault when I am running
with devfs (and devfsd).

telnetd gives getpeername: Socket operation on non-socket.

I've read the FAQ, configured the system accordingly, and can boot into
single user mode but I cannot bring up most daemons and it seems that a
great many of the /dev entries that this kernel and software require are
not created by devfsd.

Thanks in advance. I have been playing with the configuration for four
days, now, and nothing I do seems to make things better or worse.
