How can I make them reboot-resistant? With old /dev (the directory) any file-dir-link created under that dir was permanent, but with new /dev (the virtual one) any link doesn't survive at reboot :-( If there is a default place for adding a ln command please tell me, I need for this three: # ln -s mixer1 mixer # ln -s dsp1.0 dsp # ln -s acd0c cdrom _or_ can I inform DEVFS that I need "mixer" and not "mixer1" ?
