this is not entirely true...you can enable module autoloading by adding
the folowing line to your /etc/devfsd.conf

LOOKUP          .*              MODLOAD

and if you want the /dev/cdrom link, add the following line

LOOKUP      ^cdrom$      CFUNCTION      GLOBAL     symlink    
${mntpnt}/cdroms/cdrom0 $devpath
