Backup up the /dev/ directory



I'd like to move my Debian sid system over to DevFS. But before I take
the plunge I am wondering if there is any way to backup the non-DevFS
based devices under /dev, so that if anything goes majorly haywire when
I switch to DevFS I can possibly go back to the original non-DevFS based
setup ?

Will it suffice to just make a tarball of the /dev/ directory ?

Thanks.
