Hello everybody,
During the configure step of the instalation of lyx, the scripts deleted my /dev/null. How can I reconstruct it? Somebody could help-me?

Next time you compile software, don't do it as root, because script errors can do dangerous things. This is advice for all software, not only lyx. A non-root user simply isn't allowed to delete /dev/null so this doesn't happen to them.
You will probably need root in order to do the "make install" part, but don't use root for the "configure" or "make" steps.
