Ok I have read a bit about the DevFS on linux.  And I have the following
questions

1) is it worth converting to
2) what are the new names used
3) I have the old system and if I wanted to convert what would I have to
change and how (I know the /etc/fstab would need to be changed [ i don't
have it setup by partion lables, maybe I should, I have it point to
/dev/hd??]  )



to give you an idea on how my system is set up i have the following
fstab


/dev/hda6               /                       ext3    defaults       
1 1
/dev/hda5               /home                   ext3    defaults       
1 1
/dev/hda1               /boot                   ext3    defaults       
1 2
none                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620 
0 0
none                    /proc                   proc    defaults       
0 0
none                    /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults       
0 0
/dev/hda2               swap                    swap    defaults       
0 0
/dev/fd0                /mnt/floppy             auto   
noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
/dev/sda1               /mnt/jukebox            auto   
noauto,uid=500,gid=500 0 0 

/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom              iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

thanks
