What about this:
TMPDEV="`mktemp -d /tmp/devXXXXXX || { mkdir /.dev; echo -n /.dev; }`"
mount -o bind /dev $TMPDEV
mount -t tmpfs none /dev
mkdir /dev/orig
mount -o bind $TMPDEV /dev/orig
umount $TMPDEV
rm -rf $TMPDEV
This way there's no clutter in / and the original dev is mounted in a valid
place that won't get overmounted later. It's also fhs compliant I think.
