- Support for subdirectories

- Support for symbolic links (created by devfs_mk_symlink(), no
support yet for creation via symlink(2))

- SCSI disc naming now cast in stone, with the format:
/dev/sd/c0b1t2u3 whole disc on LUN=3, ID=2, bus=1, controller=0
/dev/sd/c0b1t2u3p4 4th partition on LUN=3, ID=2, bus=1, controller=0

- loop devices now appear in devfs

- tty devices, console, serial ports, etc. now appear in devfs
Thanks to C. Scott Ananian <cananian@alumni.princeton.edu>

- bugs with mounting devfs-only devices now fixed.

Enjoy!

Regards,

Richard....
