.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
The shell script
|
||
|
.Nm MAKEDEV ,
|
||
|
found in the
|
||
|
.Pa /dev
|
||
|
directory, is used to create
|
||
|
the common special
|
||
|
files.
|
||
|
See
|
||
|
.Xr special 8
|
||
|
for a more complete discussion of special files.
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
.Nm MAKEDEV
|
||
|
takes any number of device names as arguments,
|
||
|
where the names are the common abbreviation for
|
||
|
the device. There are three special device names,
|
||
|
.Ar all ,
|
||
|
.Ar std
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.Ar local .
|
||
|
If
|
||
|
given,
|
||
|
.Ar all
|
||
|
creates device files for all devices on
|
||
|
the Sun3. If units are expected for a device
|
||
|
.Nm MAKEDEV
|
||
|
supplies the standard numbers.
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.Ar std
|
||
|
argument creates the standard devices for the Sun3.
|
||
|
Finally
|
||
|
.Ar local
|
||
|
is for devices specific to the local site, and
|
||
|
executes the shell file
|
||
|
.Pa MAKEDEV.local .
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
The Sun3 supports the following devices.
|
||
|
Where a device name is followed by a hash
|
||
|
sign ("#"), the hash sign must be replaced
|
||
|
by a unit number.
