Hi.
       I have developed a Library to handle inter process communication
using the /dev/rtp[0-9]* device.

Now I'm porting all on an embedded distro, that haven't this device.

My question (very newbie at all) is how to create this special, considering
that I have no compiler on this distro (it's a very small distribution)

Thanks, Racconico

Usually, utilities used to create filesystem images for embedded distros
have a way to pass the list of devices nodes in /dev. /dev/rtp[0-9]*
devices are character devices with major number 150 and the same minor
number as their name.

To create these devices manually, run:
for((i=0; i<32; i++)); do mknod /dev/rtp$i c 150 $i; done
