In which stage do you get the fatal message? And how fatal is it? System
hang, or just no udev?

As far as I know, MAKEDEV just makes old device nodes (mknod-like). When
udev gets initialized, it 'overwrites' /dev completely. Are you sure it
was MAKEDEV? And can you remember something about what you did?

udev is very poor documantated imho. Searching over the internet and
mailinglists provides more information.

Good luck,

The software box said 'Requires Windows 95 or better', so I installed Linux.
