Bug#620881: installation-guide: MAKEDEV script absence

[JC <baptista.carneiro@gmail.com>]

Package: installation-guide
Severity: normal


On section D.3.4.1. Create device files

cd /dev
MAKEDEV generic

The makedev command does not exist or its need has been deprecated(?) and therefore should be removed.

if MAKEDEV is in use, then this should instead be applied to debootstrap(?) for not providing it.

best regards,

JC
