Bump the number of available pty's (it's the number in the ``pseudo-device'' line in your kernel config file), and recompile the kernel.

When in doubt, run MAKEDEV to create them. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
