heh, the man page for devfs is quite terse but i tried it anyhow.

options DEVFS
options SLICE

problems i had:

my scsi disk is detected however no DEVFS entry is made. (my boot disk is
an IDE drive)
i don't think my sound device was found.

questions:

how can i make symlinks in it? ( i really didn't try yet, but i'd like to
have /dev/mouse -> /dev/cuaa0 and whatnot ) 
is devfs considered stable? it doesn't seem that usable in it's current
state, but i'm assuming it's operator error ;)

thanks,
Alfred Perlstein
