Press return to continue.
It apparently tries to run MAKEDEV from the current directory. Does the
postinst cd to the directory where MAKEDEV is installed (/sbin)? Could
the nasty part is at line 38:

Probably something like this could be the fix (for sarge upgrade path):

Note that I haven't tested this for upgrades, downgrades...
