The problem using devfs is that you need the devfsd running.

Regarding the alsa i made the 2 following modification:

in /etc/modutils/aliases add at the end of the file:

alias sound             snd
alias snd               snd-card-XXX

where XXX is the name of your audio card (look at the alsa database to
be sure about
the name)

and then run

update-modules

restart the alsa:

/etc/init.d/alsa restart

and now it might work fine...
