    Hi

    Looking for some help with FreeBSD 5.1, I am new to this but I am
    fairly quick to learn.

    Problem that I am having, is that in my device driver, it see's my PCI card, but when
    I call make_dev the system hangs, then resets.

    If I try to use mknod, then it fails also. Looked at the /dev mount and even devfs fails.
    Is there some form of protection here that I don't know about?
    How can I create a device on /dev?

    Thanks

    Bob Pickles
