Description rik 2001-10-04 16:00:01 UTC 
Device with MAJOR 99 is registered as "Cronyx/Tau serial adaptor" and it's name is `ct'.
The problem is that other device uses this name sys/dev/ct and it conflicts with our device driver.

How-To-Repeat: Install cronyx-tau driver from http://www.cronyx.ru/pub/cronyx/adapters/cfbsd351.tgz
and recompile the kernel.
Unfortunately, our driver still not in kernel :(

I have hardware and have been in contact with the originator of these Cronyx PRs.

This fix is easy.  Just change the name of your Cronyx driver to, let's say, cta.
