Just rebuilt my kernel (no, that patch I suggested does not work, at least not in so far as outputing 00:a0:... as my ether address *sigh*) and rebooted, getting: FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT #16: Thu Jan 25 16:31:15 EST 1996 scrappy@freebsd.ki.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/freebsd CPU: i386DX (386-class CPU) real memory = 8781824 (8576K bytes) avail memory = 6889472 (6728K bytes) DEVFS: ready for devices Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device pty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device pty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device pty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device pty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device pty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Device tty: name slot allocation failed (E=17) Looking in /devfs, where I'm mounting the dev fs, it shows alot less then what I used to get: freebsd# ls /devfs console io null stdin urandom cuaa1 kmem pty stdout zero cuaia1 lkm random tty cuala1 log rfd0.1440 ttyd1 fd lpt0 spkr ttyid1 fd0.1440 mem stderr ttyld1 I'm not sure what work is being done on this lately, as I haven't seen anything new on it, so this might be one of those "ignore it for now" sort of things, but I figured I'd point it out, just in case.
