Just to let you all know I have solved this problem... Usually, I'm 
thinking "don't go further unless you're sure the stuff you're doing 
right now works" when I'm following HOWTOs. In this case, it was 
obviously not a good approach: This part worked once I added dumbcon=2 
to my kernel parameters. It did in fact create the devices, allthough 
mount is unaware of it... 

Now, I can start two different X servers at the same time and have them 
respond to two different keyboards and mice. Still to do is to get kdm 
to do that for me... That doesn't work yet. 

Thanks to all who responded!

Cheers,

Kjetil
