4 well unless you have devfs setup to mount automatically at boot time in your
5 kernel, the init scripts will do the rest
6
7 just watch during the boot up sequence, it should say something like:
8 * Configuring system to use udev
9 * Setting /sbin/udev as hotplug agent...
10 * Populating /dev with device nodes...

12 if it doesnt, chances are you havent enabled hotplug support in your 2.6.x
13 kernel
