manual page can now also be read. Change the references in MAKEDEV from com to tty and delete flog and add sd instead. Need much more work, but for today, after i lost my first changes through a new sup :-), that's enough.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The shell script
|
|
.IR MAKEDEV ,
|
|
found in the ``/dev'' directory, is used to create the common special

.I MAKEDEV
|
|
takes any number of device names as arguments, where the names are
|
|
the common abbreviation for the device.
|
|
There are two special devices, ``std'' and ``local''.
|
|
The former creates the standard devices for the architecture.
|
|
The latter is for devices specific to the local site, and

executes the shell file ``MAKEDEV.local''.
|
|

The i386 supports the following devices.
|
|
Where a device name is followed by a hash sign (``#''), the hash sign
|
|
must be replaced by a unit number.
