Summary 0000417: makedevs behavior differs from documentation
Description According to the documentation, the makedevs interprets the value in the last column of its input file as the number of devices to create. This is not true, for exampele should the default configuration create hda[1-15], but hda15 is missing. Changing the statement

  for (i = start; i < count; i++)

in makedevs.c into

  for (i = start; i < start+count; i++)

should fix the problem.
Additional Information this isn't an issue per se. as the "count" is a totaly count starting at 0. to get for example hda[3-15], you need to specify the starting point of 3, and since you want to step from 0-15, which is a totaly of 16 cycles, your "count" would be 16.
