You'll never silence the voice of the voiceless, Mel!

Probably that was caused by overall instability of my 7.1 system:
===
# devfs -m /jailpath/dev rule apply path ttyp* unhide
# chroot /jailpath/
# ls /dev
dsp0.1          lpt0            mixer0          random          ttyp1           ttyp3           ttyp5           zero
log             lpt0.ctl        null            ttyp0           ttyp2           ttyp4           urandom
# script
script: openpty: Resource temporarily unavailable
# exit
exit
# devfs -m /jailpath/dev rule apply path pty* unhide
# chroot /jailpath/
# script
script: openpty: Permission denied
# exit
exit
# devfs -m /jailpath/dev rule apply path * unhide
devfs rule: unknown argument: Desktop
# devfs -m /jailpath/dev rule apply type tty unhide
# chroot /jailpath/
# script
Script started, output file is typescript
# exit

Script done, output file is typescript
# exit
exit
# 
===

Now this seem to work, after the reboot. Although I'd like to ask if I used the major/minor numbers for temporary rules when portupgraded the 5/6 systems, what kind of rule I should specify to avoid 'openpty' reason of script(1) failure? Which tty devices does it use? You may see I try the path pty* and path ttyp* without that luck though. Major/minor numbers are gone since some of 6.X.
