This will vary more or less randomly with the install media.  At various
points in the past, we either have or haven't pre-created a handful of
device nodes in the target /dev "just in case".

mount -o bind / /mnt && ls /mnt/dev shows nothing at all here, and I don't
see this behavior.

But it shouldn't hurt to mount -o bind / /mnt && rm -r /mnt/dev/* to rule it
out.
