Hello,
Does anyone know how to pass a kernel argument on bubba2? Would I have to manipulate the u-boot loader somehow?
I installed truecrypt (via the excelent manual here in the forum) want to mount several devices. Unforuntately, I need more than the installed 8 loopback devices for that, and it seems that I have to pass a kernel parameter for this.
kind regards,
Florian

Thank you very much, mknod worked. 
I tried to use mknod before, but it did not work, I guess I did not do it correctly. And on the internet it said I have to configure the module, which is now compiled into the kernel, therefore I assumed I had to parameterize the kernel... Anyway, thank you very much.
