Look at http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/xen/howto.html and see "Creating

Linux unprivileged domains" for instructions how to use hexadecimal
numbers instead of wd0d.
I re-read this part of the howto. As I understand it, it means that Xen/Linux cannot mount a device as "wd0d" into a NetBSD-domU (and vice versa).

If this is correct, I would need to now how NetBSD does device numbering.

Can anybody tell me how hexadecimal device numbers are derived from device names like "wd0d"? I do not find anything helpful in Google at the moment.

Dirk
