What happened to /dev/fd0?



I have done two thing that could have changed it:

1. Installed kernel-image-2.6.6-i686
2. Ran the mkdev.sh script from lm-sensors-sources.

Now there are no devices like /dev/fd0-3

zsh % ls -la /dev/fd*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 2004-05-24 19:07 /dev/fd ->
/proc/self/fd

zsh % ls -la /dev/fd/
total 4
dr-x------    2 js       js              0 2004-05-25 14:28 .
dr-xr-xr-x    3 js       js              0 2004-05-25 14:28 ..
lrwx------    1 js       js             64 2004-05-25 14:28 0 -> /dev/tty2
lrwx------    1 js       js             64 2004-05-25 14:28 1 -> /dev/tty2
lrwx------    1 js       js             64 2004-05-25 14:28 2 -> /dev/tty2
lr-x------    1 js       js             64 2004-05-25 14:28 3 -> /proc/22546/fd

I have tried to create /dev/fd0 by using MAKEDEV but I still cannot
find the device /dev/fd0.

04-05-25 14:30:48 js@burger /dev
zsh % sudo MAKEDEV fd0
zsh: correct 'fd0' to 'fd' [nyae]? n
04-05-25 14:31:09 js@burger /dev
zsh % ls fd0
zsh: correct 'fd0' to 'fd' [nyae]? n
ls: fd0: No such file or directory
04-05-25 14:31:19 js@burger /dev
zsh %

What is going on here?  

Regards
Johann
