>Description:

/dev/MAKEDEV creates md* devices incorrectly on i386,alpha and other
architectures (only sparc is OK)

>How-To-Repeat:

Try to use mdconfig example from its manpage.

>Fix:

for i386 the code should be something like

        mknod md${unit} b 17 $(($unit * 8))
        mknod rmd${unit} c 24 $((($unit + 16) * 8))
        chown root.operator md$unit rmd$unit
        chmod 640 md$unit rmd$unit

Unit ($unit + 16) is control device, see sys/dev/md.c
