[WARNING] devfs mount default changed

  Hi, all. The default mounting behaviour for devfs has changed
recently :-( If your system no longer boots correctly (a typical
message is "Unable to open initial console"), you may have been caught
by this change. Look for the boot message:
Mounted devfs on /dev

If this is not present, add "devfs=mount" to your boot options.

Don't Blame Me[tm].

                                Regards,

                                        Richard....
