Hengstler; freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ata & tar John, I had same problem when I built 4.5-STABLE. The solution is to run the new MAKEDEV. Be sure to copy the new MAKEDEV (version 1.243.2.45 or later) located at /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV over to /dev. Then run it with /dev/MAKEDEV all This should fix it.
