Greetings,

Got tired of all the systems that could be available, basically a system that can load any and every module in existense if the device exists.

Way  beyond devfs. But with 2.6 kernel (3.x, 4.x 5.x 6.x nothing has changed except amount of devices) trying to find the LFS 1.0 cd I created recently.
