Hi,

You have to bind driver spt in kernel manually,
editing /stand/system and adding the following line:
driver 10/16/4.0.0 spt

recompile the kernel:
10.20
-----
cd /stand; mk_kernel -s system
mv vmunix vmunix.backup; mv vmunix_test vmunix

11.X
----
above steps;
kmupdate

Reboot and your device will be /dev/rac/c?t?d?

God bless pessimists, they did the backup!
