mknod?

[jnorell]

A suggestion for -4 option to remount root, in many environments you should be able to call mknod(2) or mknodat(2) to create common device files to try, in addition to searching for them.

Hi Jesse,

Not sure what you mean by that, I thought that is exactly what I am doing. Can you please explain?

Thanks,

Hello,

My mistake, I read the description of -4 to mean it crawled the filesystem looking for device files to open and use; indeed a quick search for mknod within chwoot.c shows it creating device files to use.
