Yea, MAKEDEV is now obsolete and /dev should be basically empty. At
boot time /dev is mounted as a tmpfs and populated with dev nods by udev
for the hardware actually installed as it is detected. If you want to
chroot into a hard disk from the livecd to manipulate it, you want to
bind mount the /dev on the hard disk to your real /dev as Colin said...
docs should be updated.
