for some odd reason, every time i install netbsd it DELETES /dev/MAKEDEV
(or doesn't install it).

please can someone send it to me? the one i extracted from the etc tarball
merely contained a long copyright notice, and no actual commands other than

echo 'no such device' - and that's all it does.

i type sh MAKEDEV.local pty0 and it says - no such device.

please can someone send me the real thing in a mail message? i really need
more than 4 pty's.

i promise i'll make a thousand backups of it so i don't have to ask again

i really don't know why my installers don't install it for me
it's so irritating...

thanks
