Okay you saw this coming right?

The utils need /dev/megadev0, in the init script for it is this:

===================
MAJOR=`grep megadev /proc/devices|awk '{print $1}'`
                                                                                                                                                             
if [ ! x$MAJOR = x ]
then
        # major device number found
        rm -f /dev/megadev0     # remove if already there, ignore if not.
        mknod /dev/megadev0  c $MAJOR 0
fi
===================

Which finds nothing as my proc/devices shows no megaraid:

Character devices:
  1 mem
  2 pty
  3 ttyp
  4 ttyS
  5 cua
  7 vcs
 10 misc
 29 fb
128 ptm
136 pts
 
Block devices:
  1 ramdisk
  2 fd
  3 ide0
  7 loop
  8 sd
  9 md
 36 ed
 65 sd

Do any of those jump out as being relevant and a possible major number?  md looked promising so I tried that (9) to no avail.  

The only reference I can find to 'megaraid' is in /proc/interrupts:

 15:     181190          XT-PIC  megaraid

Anyone know the major number I might use?  Google hasn't helped me yet.
