Sorry ... I forgot about the <start> <inc> <count> fields:

These are used to define a series of character or block device inodes

with the same major number. Basically, it goes like this

count: the number of minor devices to create (if > 0)

start: the start index (added to minor)

inc: the increment 


if (count > 0) 
  for (i = start; i < count; i++) 
    rdev = MKDEV(major, minor + (i * increment - start));

Regards,
