Talk:Device Nodes
Um, on any Mac OS block device diskXsY has a character device counterpart called rdiskXsY, so rdisk0* is just a character device for accessing the flash.
! Ahh! Thanks for that correction MiW
lol
on the same topic as above...rdisko is not ramdisk...do you know what ramdisk means? :)
I do know what a ramdisk means yes! Why is it so strange that there would exist a ramdisk device node? The device must read the ramdisk contents from flash before it copies to ram right?
Ive had my device for a little under 4 days now, and from a linux background so I am not totally sure how OSX/BSD handles it all. Im just trying report all the info I find. MiW
Also, maybe add /dev/kmem and /dev/mem as blocked nodes
"blocked nodes"? Does the kernel prevent the user from reading from these nodes?
Oh and i am totally right about the GPS.
