Summary:                    DAHDI Module Fails to Load
Description: 
dahdi-linux 2.1.0.4 compiles and installs correctly, but when the init
script tries to load the module I see the following error:

-bash-3.2# /etc/init.d/dahdi start
Loading DAHDI hardware modules:
  dahdi_dummy:  [  OK  ]

Error: missing /dev/dahdi!

Thanks, I've never had to muck around in the /dev directory before, so I
wasn't sure if there was some special procedure required to make the
/dev/dahdi directory. I created it the normal way using mkdir, then created
the 4 special files using mknod, and everything strated working fine when I
rebooted it. dahdi_test reports 99.9875% accuracy. 

Regarding the patch, it seems that dahdi_dummy is "ticking" just fine, so
I'm not sure of what sort of results you're looking for. Can you
elaborate?

Thanks again for all your help!
