[Grml] [OT] udev and number of devices

[T]

Hi,

Not a grml specific question, but trying to tap into the knowledge from
people here:

Can udev handle more than 15 devices?

My HD used to have 15 partitions, now I created another one, the 16th, but
it is not recognized by udev. I.e., there is no /dev/sda16. 

If I created it myself, like the following, 

  $ ls -l /dev/sda1*
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8,  1 12-03 12:31 /dev/sda1
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 10 12-03 17:31 /dev/sda10
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 11 12-03 17:31 /dev/sda11
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 12 12-03 12:31 /dev/sda12
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 13 12-03 17:31 /dev/sda13
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 14 12-03 17:31 /dev/sda14
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 15 12-03 17:31 /dev/sda15
  brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 12-03 18:08 /dev/sda16

I still can't use it to mount the partition:

  % mount /dev/sda16 /mnt/tmp1/
  mount: /dev/sda16 is not a valid block device

Anything I've been missing?

thanks
