Hi,
with / on an IDE harddisk the disks partitions do not appear in
devfs, only the disc device. This is due to rescan_partitions
being called twice and deleting but not re-creating the entries
during the second call. Here's the patch:
diff -Nur linux-2.5-unmodified/fs/partitions/check.c linux-2.5/fs/partition=
s/check.c
