Take another look at the book - we create null and console in the /dev directory, but then we mount a filesystem on it : before you create stdin, stdout, etc you need to again create console and null! I'll hazard a guess that this, plus perhaps other omitted devices, might be enough to make you run out of ptys. Certainly you won't get very far without a working /dev/null.
