(to -stable and maintainer of UPDATING, imp@village.org)

I am preparing for the update from 3.3 RELEASE to 4.0 STABLE (RELENG_4)
and am a little confused by the MAKEDEV instructions.  I am looking for
some clarification.

The instructions almost look like a shell script, but I am assuming it is
just pseudocode.  Is it possible to simply run the following command to
rebuild the disk /dev/entries?

sh MAKEDEV all

If not, can I limit the rebuild only the disks and slices that I am using?
I currently have a SCSI (da) and an IDE drive (wd).

(I believe cvsup will be done shortly.)
