I know this is probably a "WONTFIX, if you use dev kernels expect the unexpected", but the reports about "Unable to open a suitable terminal device" keep coming up in the forums and probably ML and are starting to annoy some. So I suggest adding something like this: echo ewarn "Please note that ptyfs support has been removed from devfs" ewarn "in the later 2.5.x kernels, and you have to compile it in now," ewarn "or else you will get errors when trying to open a pty." ewarn "The option is under filesystems -> Pseudo filesystems -> /dev/pts" ewarn "filesystem." echo to the mm-sources and development-sources ebuilds' pkg_postinst(). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Nope, it's a "FIXED." Thanks for the suggestion. I also added a note about the VT_CONSOLE/"Uncompressing kernel" problem. That one bit me when I tried my first 2.5.x kernel.
