Removing devfsd



     How can devfsd be removed safely?  I have purged the package,
cleaned out /dev and reconstructed the device files with `MAKEDEV
generic', but the partition is then unbootable.  On boot, fsck
reports: "fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open
/dev/hda6".

     To recover, I have booted another partition, mounted hda6 on
 /mnt, chrooted into hda6 and re-installed devfsd.  This is
 reproducible - I have done it three times.

Regards,

Bob
