 |

 | 
						|
		Older kernels had /dev/ramdisk (1, 1) here.
 | 
						|
		/dev/initrd refers to a RAM disk which was preloaded
 | 
						|
		by the boot loader; newer kernels use /dev/ram0 for
 | 
						|
		the initrd.

 | 
						|
		    ...
 | 
						|
		255 = /dev/ptyef	256th PTY master
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		Pseudo-tty's are named as follows:
 | 
						|
		* Masters are "pty", slaves are "tty";
 | 
						|
		* the fourth letter is one of pqrstuvwxyzabcde indicating
 | 
						|
		  the 1st through 16th series of 16 pseudo-ttys each, and
 | 
						|
		* the fifth letter is one of 0123456789abcdef indicating
 | 
						|
		  the position within the series.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		These are the old-style (BSD) PTY devices; Unix98
 | 
						|
		devices are on major 128 and above and use the PTY
 | 
						|
		master multiplex (/dev/ptmx) to acquire a PTY on

		demand.

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		NOTE: The letter in the device name (d, q, h or u)

		5.25" Quad Density (q), 5.25" High Density (h) or 3.5"
 |

		(any model, u).	 The use of the capital letters D, H

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		Older versions of the Linux kernel used this major
 |

		number for BSD PTY devices.  As of Linux 2.1.115, this

		is no longer supported.	 Use major numbers 2 and 3.

		    ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		The loop devices are used to mount filesystems not
 |

		associated with block devices.	The binding to the
 | 
						|
		loop devices is handled by mount(8) or losetup(8).

		225 = /dev/nst1a	Second SCSI tape, mode 3, no rewind
 | 
						|
		    ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		"No rewind" refers to the omission of the default
 | 
						|
		automatic rewind on device close.  The MTREW or MTOFFL
 | 
						|
		ioctl()'s can be used to rewind the tape regardless of
 |
