Overview

========

nopdev is an extremely minimalistic Linux (https://www.kernel.org/) device

manager in the spirit of smdev (http://git.2f30.org/smdev/), but even simpler.

nopdev does nothing except module loading (via modprobe) and changing the

ownership and permissions of device nodes.

nopdev requires a devtmpfs file system mounted at /dev. It does not create

device nodes and backwards-compatibility symlinks or rename network interfaces.

Building

========

Copy config.def.h to config.h, modify it to your liking, then run:

  make

Usage

=====

To start nopdev, use the helper script:

  start-nopdev
