Re: [sshfs] "fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first", but module is loaded

[P. M. <pa...@un...>]

Hi,

 - udev is not installed (debian sid btw)
 - yes, /dev/fuse was missing. I created it (mknod /dev/fuse c 10 229), and
now it works. I added it to the fuse start script, let's see if it works
next time ;)

Thanks,
 Patrick
