After mergemastering, and if /dev/MAKEDEV gets updated, I usually just
do an 'sh MAKEDEV all', then use 'ls -lt' which will list all the old
and non-standard devices at the bottom of the listing for easy
identification. Then I selectively MAKEDEV the ones I still need,
i.e., you may then need to selectly MAKEDEV devices such as da4 and
higher, vn0, ccd0, etc if you use those. I think Doug mentioned that
it won't re-create your disk slices. I always do that manually for
the disk where the root filesystem is located.
With a little scripting, all of this could be automated.
