udev: missing /dev/snd, /dev/sound, and others

Hi all

Build is ROCK trunk from about a month ago, with a few patches and some 
package directories updated to current that were failing to build.

Target is Generic.
Optimization is for PIII
First install victim is a PIII.

After several fixes all but 38 packages built, and none of the failures 
looked to be important, save for maybe svgalib.

Build host was ROCK 2.0.3 Generic, PII, w/2.6 kernel.

While I spent some time reading man pages, I still do not understand 
udev hardly at all.

Anyway, the first thing I notice is no sound: no /dev/snd or /dev/sound
Although the sound card is found and there is much stuff about the sound 
card in /sys.

Upon checking the /etc/udev/* stuff, it all looks good as far as I can tell.

I did notice that both udev and devfs were being started, so removed 
devfs from the rc2.d directory.

Other things are also apparently missing, as when X starts, it fails due 
to no /dev/fb or some such.

Also, the /dev directory is very cluttered with lots of tty* and pt* 
files, most of which I'm sure I don't need, right?

Any help much appreciated, thanks.
