I'm still messing around trying to get vmware2 to operate.  I decided to
try to reinstall the ports/emulators/linux_base port, and deinstalling it
took out the linux/dev directory.  Reinstalling it did not put it back.

I have *some* of the devices back, but I don't know enough about what
Linux devices are, to stick all the stuff back in.  I need my scsi disks,
I think, and my cdrom is scsi too.  How about my ttys ... I have some of
my tty's in there, but I'm not at all sure I have softlinked things
correctly, because I don't know what Linux is expecting.

Anyone running vmware with scsi disks (and cdrom) mind sending me a ls -l
of their linux/dev?  In fact, it might not be a bad idea to send to the
list, because I couldn't find this info in the mail archives anywhere.
