#2685: Does udev populate /dev correctly?
-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------

From Andy Benton on lfs-dev:
I haven't updated my bootscripts lately but today I decided to rectify
that, I downloaded lfs-bootscripts-20100529 and installed them on a new
system. They worked fine apart from the mountfs script which returned a
fail.
When I logged in and ran mount -a it complained that /dev/pts and
/dev/shm did not exist. It used to be that the udev bootscript copied
/lib/udev/devices/{pts,shm} to /dev but looking at it now, the only thing
it copies is /lib/udev/devices/null
On the udev page in chapter 6 it still says to install
/lib/{firmware,udev/devices/{pts,shm}}. If the udev bootscript doesn't
copy /lib/udev/devices/{pts,shm} to /dev, how are /dev/{pts,shm} going to
be created?
