Thanks for sharing the info.   It appeared Linux is a
bit different in the device configuration.   I have a
couple questions:
1. Is there a kernel function call, from the driver,
equivalent to "mknod" command?  
2. How can I ensure the /dev/XXXn device remain
consistent throughout reboots?  It appears to me if I
have handful of devices, some of them are powered off
during reboot;  I could be dealing with a different
device while /dev/XXXn is the same 
Thanks
