Hello,
  I'm trying to build a custom image for gem5 based on CentOS. I started
out using your init tool and putting a basic chroot image on it. After
trying to boot that up I realized that I didn't have a console and made
one using mknod (mknod -m 600 ./dev/console c 5 1).

  After doing that it was booting, but it was hanging on udev.
Eventually, gem5 terminates. Below are messages that gem5 leaves before
dying.

  I did mount both the gentoo and ubuntu images and tried coping their
/dev to the CentOS image (cp -dpvR /mnt/dev/ ./dev/); however that still
hasn't done anything.

  Are there any other /dev devices that I should be producing or does
anyone have any experience with using an distro outside of Gentoo or
Ubuntu?

  Let me know if there is anything else that I can provide.

Eric
