It's telling you what you're doing wrong:

Code:
+ /bin/raw /dev/raw/sdb1 /dev/sdb1
Usage:
  /bin/raw /dev/raw/rawN <major> <minor>
  /bin/raw /dev/raw/rawN /dev/<blockdev>
  /bin/raw -q /dev/raw/rawN
  /bin/raw -qa

You don't get a /dev/raw/sdb, you get /dev/raw/raw0, /dev/raw/raw1, etc, etc. (This is assuming you have /dev/raw at all.)

You might be able to get away with stripping the 'sdb' out of the filename to use /dev/raw/raw1 for /dev/sdb1, /dev/raw/raw2 for /dev/sdb2, etc, etc, assuming you aren't already using those raw devices for anything.
