If you use the 'lilo' utility, you should check the /etc/lilo.conf 'image' item
specified in the 'vmlinuz' path, or you will load the wrong (or old) boot kernel
image (vmlinuz). After checking /etc/lilo.conf, run "lilo".
Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you must go back to the
Linux configuration setup. Type "make menuconfig" in directory /usr/src/linux.
6. Make tty device and special file
# cd /moxa/mxser/driver

Custom configuration
Although this driver already provides you with a default configuration, you can still change
the device name and major number. The instructions for changing these parameters are
given below.
Change Device name
If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming conventions, all you need
to do is modify the internal code within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open
"msmknod" with vi. Locate all lines that contain "ttyM" and "cum" and change them to the
device name of your choice. "msmknod" creates the device names that will be used the next
time executed.
Change Major number
If the major numbers 30 and 35 are already being used, you will need to select 2 free major
numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps required to change major numbers.
1. Find free major numbers
Look in /proc/devices to find all major numbers used by the system. Select 2 major
numbers that are available: e.g., 40, 45.
2. Create special files
Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with the specified major
numbers.
