As arguments it takes the names of known devices, like .Ar sd0 , or of special targets, like .Pa all or .Pa std , which create a collection of device special files. .Pp The script is in .Pa /dev/MAKEDEV and must be called from the .Pa /dev directory. .Pp The special targets supported on .Nx Ns / Ns sgimips are: .Pp .\" @@@SPECIAL@@@ .Bl -tag -width 01234567 -compact .It Ar all Makes all known devices, including local devices. If units are expected for a device .Pa MAKEDEV supplies the standard numbers. .It Ar minimal A minimal set of devices for install disks, etc. .It Ar std The standard devices (console, drum, klog, kmem, mem, null, stderr, stdin, stdout, tty, zero). .It Ar local Configuration specific devices which are created by running the .Pa MAKEDEV.local shell script with the argument ``all''. .It Ar isdn Make ISDN devices .El .Pp Please note that any hash marks .Pq Dq # in the following list of supported device targets must be replaced by digits when calling .Nm "" : .Pp .\" @@@DEVICES@@@ .Bl -tag -width 01 .It Tapes : .
