 |
|
I have been trying to setup device management with busybox's mdev
during my init however, the following command
echo /sbin/mdev > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
yields this error:
cannot create /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug: nonexistent directory
I cannot find config_hotplug in my kernel
I'm using:
3.16.1-gentoo
thanks |

Some suggestions...
Make sure procfs is mounted?
All plug and play options enabled?

yes, the procfs is mounted
I don't think I know what the pnp options are
so could you please provide me with a list?
or would you rather I post my .config file here? |

well plug and play the the hotplug file is now avaialable
what I did was compile support for uevent helper into the kernel
modules still are not autoloading
