Hi,

This is what I was looking for, thanks for the answer.

I have tested the command mdev-s in the terminal, but I would like that It do it automatic when I insert a module.

I have read the file “mdev.txt”, as I understand I have to introduce two lines of code(1- About hotplugging,2-mdev) in the init script( For me /etc/rc).

The problem is when I recompiled to make the zImage again, lines of code that I have introduced were erased.

I don't know if it is the correct "init script" or if I have to change something in menuconfig to preserve the code that I have introduced.

Thanks a lot.
