--- Quote Start ---

I have the device driver open "/dev/myDDriver0" -- which is MAJOR - 240 and Minor 0

I created a node locally in the directory I'm running the test code: mknod node c 204 0 (same major and minor# )

There are several ways. One is to use different minor numbers, like 0, 1, 2 etc..
