Thanks. I can see /proc/mtd but there is no /dev/mtd0 (or anything mtd in /dev).
And still all I see in sysfs is the mtd class directory no dev file.

Module Size Used by
mtdram 2884 0
mtdchar 5000 0
mtdcore 5760 3 mtdram,mtdchar

I just tried it on a clean 2.6.6-rc1 kernel and the same thing happened. Created
a /proc/mtd but no /dev/mtd*

So either Im doing something wrong or there is a bug of some sort...

Thanks a lot.
