Are you sure you've got v24? I'm running v24 (of course:-) and I can
do:

# mknod /dev/initctl p
# cat /dev/initctl &
# echo "hello pipe" > /dev/initctl
and get no errors. I don't see why it would work for me and not for
you. Can you try the same test (i.e. just do things manually)?

Regards,

Richard....
