System: NetBSD wile-e-coyote 1.3_ALPHA NetBSD 1.3_ALPHA (WILE-E-COYOTE) #2: Mon Nov 3 06:28:08 EST 1997 nathanw@wile-e-coyote:/u1/var/src/sys/arch/sun3/compile/WILE-E-COYOTE sun3


>Description:
	MAKEDEV doesn't have a entry for the "lkm" device. This
contradicts the top of the file:
#       bpf*    packet filter
#       lkm     loadable kernel modules interface
#       tun*    network tunnel driver

	This is bad, since LKM's work just fine on the sun3 port, and
people (like me) might want to use them.
>How-To-Repeat:
	cd /dev
	./MAKEDEV lkm
Watch it fail.
>Fix:
	Here is a patch to make MAKEDEV know about the lkm device and
then add it to the "all" target.

MAKEDEV doesn't know how to make /dev/lkm, contradicting its comments.
