Subjectdevfs patch v20 available
  Hi, all. I've finally managed to get back to devfs.

Version 20 of my devfs patch is now available from:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/kernel-patches.html

This is against 2.1.86. The next patch should be against
2.1.91-pre?. Highlights of this release:

- only create available floppy entries
Thanks to Andrzej Krzysztofowicz <ankry@green.mif.pg.gda.pl>

- new IDE naming scheme following SCSI format (i.e. /dev/id/c0b0t0u0p1
instead of /dev/hda1)
Thanks to Andrzej Krzysztofowicz <ankry@green.mif.pg.gda.pl>

- new XT disc naming scheme following SCSI format (i.e. /dev/xd/c0t0p1
instead of /dev/xda1)
Thanks to Andrzej Krzysztofowicz <ankry@green.mif.pg.gda.pl>

- new non-standard CD-ROM names (i.e. /dev/sbp/c#t#)
Thanks to Andrzej Krzysztofowicz <ankry@green.mif.pg.gda.pl>

- allow symlink traversal when mounting the root filesystem

- Create entries for MD devices at MD init
Thanks to Christophe Leroy <leroy@meg.fr>

Regards,

Richard....
