In /etc/ttys, I have the line:
ttye0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" vt220 on secure
Typing cd /dev/; ls ttye* gives me: ttye0
So /dev/ttye0 exists. Typing ./MAKEDEV ttyE0 (same as ttye0 but uppercase E=
)
reports: "mknod: invalid number: E0 =AC=A0chown: tty0E0: No such file or
directory". The curious part is that mknod might be making a device called
tty0E0. Strange...
