The /dev/drdb devices of SuSE 9.3 does not exist under OSS 10. In fact,
there seems to be many directories not in OSS10 that were in SuSE 9.3.
(Is it wise to use OSS10 rather than Novell's SUSE 10)

Anyone that has come beyond this step in the "Howto Build and Install
DRDB" Update:  Since we now (0.7.1 and later) have an officially
assigned device major number (147) .... ?

Greetings.

:-)
Al
