off: raw devices under devfs

[Sipos Ferenc <sferi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

I know it's a bit offtopic, but I can't find the answer for the 
following question: I'm using redhat 7.1 with xfs and devfs enabled, and 
unable to make raw devices, because raw can't find /dev/rawctl. If I 
make rawctl with mknod /dev/rawctl c 161 0 and raw /dev/raw1 /dev/cdrom, 
it won't work. Perhaps, there's another naming scheme under devfs or 
something has to be compiled into the kernel? I'm using the latest cvs 
from oss.sgi.com, and gcc 3.0 if that matters. I'd like to make my dvd 
drive to be a raw device, because of smoother dvd playing. Thx in 
advance for any help.
