Hi

I want to commit a new /dev/random RSN, so I'll be needing a major
device; what is the procedure for getting one? I know how to steal one,
but ISTR that this is not how it is done.

Also - Peter said something about the "mem" device needing
to only contain the /dev/mem and /mem/kmem devices, and
/dev/(random|urandom|null|zero) needing to move to MI areas. I have done
this, as KLD's. Who wants to review?

M
