.Nm
is used to create system and device special files.
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.

The special targets supported on
.Nx Ns / Ns netwinder
are:

.It Ar all
Makes all known devices, including local devices. Tries to make the 'standard' number of each type.
.It Ar floppy
Devices to be put on install floppies
.It Ar std
Standard devices
.It Ar local
Configuration specific devices which are created by running the
.Pa MAKEDEV.local
shell script with the argument ``all''.
.It Ar isdn
