Also recall, that on that system, you are using udev and /dev is probably mounted in /tmpfs, not as persistent files on the hard disk. Gentoo gives you three ways to handle a missing device (follow the directions for a missing /dev/console or /dev/null).
But what you want to handle is dynamic devices (pts 0...254) in the guest with a device creation system that runs in the host. First, grab all the udev manuals you can lay your hands on... The 'stock' system scripts are creating devices in '/dev'; modify to create them also in /<vserver>/<guestroot>/dev Sorry, I don't know how only what.
