Hello, Any reason linux_base-8 insists upon successfully using mknod in the installation in directories in the WRKDIRPREFIX, which may or may not be mounted with nodev option, and in my case resides within a jail, where mknod reports: mknod: /usr/local/ports/work/usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-8/work/linux_base-8-8.0/dev/null: Operation not permitted Perhaps, since 5.x has been out for a while, some way of getting linux_base to use devfs instead of mknod might be nice? I am told 6.x won't allow mknod at all, regardless of jail presence. -john
