I'm sorry.  Next time I'll read the faq more carefully, at least twice,
before I ask a question of the list.  :)

Incidentally, there seems to be a typo in the faq, under the "add the
following lines near the bvery beginning..." in the permissions section:

     mount --bind /dev /dev-state
     mount -t devfs none /dev
     devfsd /dev

     /dev.  <--- what's this?

Thanks,

-Eric
