1993-03-21 12:45:37 +03:00
The shell script
1997-10-19 17:02:43 +04:00
.Nm MAKEDEV ,
found in the
.Pa /dev
directory, is used to create the common special

.Nm
1993-03-21 12:45:37 +03:00
takes any number of device names as arguments, where the names are
the common abbreviation for the device.
1997-10-19 17:02:43 +04:00
There are two special devices,
.Ar std
and
.Ar local .
1993-03-21 12:45:37 +03:00
The former creates the standard devices for the architecture.
The latter is for devices specific to the local site, and
1997-10-19 17:02:43 +04:00
executes the shell file
.Pa MAKEDEV.local .
.Pp
The
.Tn HP300
supports the following devices.
Where a device name is followed by a hash sign
.Ql \&# ,
the hash sign
1993-03-21 12:45:37 +03:00
must be replaced by a unit number.
