/dev/async : open failed issue

Hi

Im trying to run an async test and getthe following error :

/dev/async: open failed
/dev/async: open failed

I try to create the /async in /stand/system and rebuild the kernel and it doesnt recognise the /dev/async and skips that variable.

how do i fix this ?

Hi,

You will need to add asyncdsk to system and recompile the kernel. Also add asyncdsk_included along with it.

Use SAM if you are not clear on the driver name.

You need to add drives asyncdsk and asyncdsk_included. Once added recompile the kernel. Create a device file /dev/async. Give appropriate perms on /dev/async.
