Maybe it's just me, and I've overlooked something, but since I've 
already made a big enough fool of myself this week, a little more won't 
hurt if I'm wrong.

 Now that udevstart no longer gets installed, r7443 took out the attempt 
to run it.  As far as I can see, when we try to run grub in chapter 8 we 
don't have any disk devices for it to use.  I can recall seeing mount 
--bind of the host's /dev being suggested in a trac ticket, but I don't 
recall seeing an outcome (to me, this looks a little awkward - we don't 
want the host's devices when we create a skeletal /dev/console etc, and 
we can't make the mount from inside chroot afterwards).  I suppose we 
could add instructions to mount --bind from the host in chapter 8.

 Alternatively, a clue-bat etched with a note of where we create the 
disk devices during the install will elicit a "sorry for the noise" 
response.
