Here is a little question, I had problems with the permissions
for files in /dev and so I thought that by running MAKEDEV it would restore
the default permissions on the dev files that needed it but
it turns out that now I can't mount any of the partitions on my
hard drives. 

I was thinking of doing a 'MAKEDEV sd0' but I was not sure if it
will match with the way I have my slices on my drives.  Is this correst approach
and should I not run just MAKEDEV without any params any more?

Also, I'm dropped to a shell during bootup and so / is mounted read-only.
