Dougie,

I suspect having an /etc/fstab that uses the disk labels, rather than device
names would be the way to go if you want to be able to flip-flop between
devfs/non-devfs.

Is there any existing documentation (mini-HOWTO?) for converting from a
2.2 kernel with a normal /dev to a 2.4 with devfs active.

What changes do I have to make to /etc/fstab?
How can I make the changes compatible (for backout)?
What kernel options can I pass to control devfs?
What can I do if it goes wrong?
What benefits does devfs bring with it?
[add other topic headings here...]
