61.Sh DESCRIPTION
62.Nm
63is used to create system and device special files.
64As arguments it takes the names of known devices, like
65.Ar sd0 ,
66or of special targets, like
67.Pa all
68or
69.Pa std ,
70which create a collection of device special files.
71.Pp
72The script is in
73.Pa /dev/MAKEDEV
74and must be called from the
75.Pa /dev
76directory.
77For the creation of the devices,
78.Xr mknod 8
79is used, which can only be used for creating devices by the
80super-user.
81The
82.Xr mknod 8
83used can be overridden by the
84.Fl m
85flag.
86.Pp
87Supported options are:
88.Bl -tag -width XmXmknodXX
89.It Fl f
90Force permissions to be updated on existing devices.
91.It Fl m Ar mknod
92Name of
93.Xr mknod 8
94program.
95[Usually, $TOOL_MKNOD or mknod.]
96.It Fl s
97Generate
98.Xr mtree 8
99specfile instead of creating devices.
100.El
101.Pp
102The special targets supported on
103.Nx
104are:
105.Pp
106.\" @@@SPECIAL@@@
107.Bl -tag -width 01234567 -compact
108.It Ar all
109Makes all known devices, including local devices. Tries to make the 'standard' number of each type.
110.It Ar init
111A set of devices that is used for MFS /dev by init. May be equal to ``all''.
112.It Ar floppy
113Devices to be put on install floppies
114.It Ar ramdisk
115Devices to be put into INSTALL kernel ramdisks.
116.It Ar std
117Standard devices
118.It Ar local
