A minor problem I've been having since my latest install (December 25
I think) is that every time I try and use /dev/stdout or stdin or
stderr, I get a message like:
/dev/stdout: Device not configured.
This is not usually a problem, until I try to do a 'make tags' -
which runs ctags.
Any ideas? Is it something I've missed in /sys/i386/conf/ICOSA
(my hacked GENERICISA file)
PS: setup is 0.1 with patchkit (sans we8003 patch), and a lot of extra
minor 'patches' that have appeared here since then. MAKEDEV has been
run a few times as well. The files exist, and have separate minor
numbers (which funnilly enough correspond to their fd #'s :), but I
can't remember the major # at this time.
TiA,
Luke
