Re: udev MAKEDEV



hey,
  /dev is, as mentioned, created at boot time, if you're trying to run
lilo from a rescue disk you'll need to use something like 
'sudo mount -o bind /dev/ /path/to/mounted/disk/dev'
  Then chroot into /path/to/mounted/disk/ and then run lilo.

hope this helps,
cheers,
Owen.
