Im not clear about the dev entries.. Could I say
start out with an emtpy /dev directory, after 
rm all device entries in there..

and then do a MAKEDEV like below - as quoted from 
UPDATING..

To rebuild disk /dev entries
----------------------------
starting the following:
	For N in the list of disks
		MAKEDEV N			# eg ad0
		for M in the list of slices
			MAKEDEV NsMa		# eg ad0s1a

Tnx, rotan.
