It would be better if you explained what the problem is. I'm typing these
words on a Red Hat 8.0 system with devfs.
The steps are:
1) Install devfsd
2) Edit /etc/devfsd.conf to create the symlinks you need and set
permissions, e.g.
REGISTER ^input/mice$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname mouse
REGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom.$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrom
REGISTER ^sound/.*$ PERMISSIONS root.root 0666
3) Comment out /dev/pts in /etc/fstab
4) Install kernel with devfs support
5) Reboot
