Problem description

A problem exists with devfsd handling of ida devices (aka compaq smart array). The system will not boot if "devfs=mount" is passed to the kernel on the boot loaded command line. The system will boot, however, if "devfs=nomount" is passed to the kernel. Devfsd would incorrectly set the old ida compatibility links to device entries in /dev. This new package corrects this problem.
