MAKEDEV: A program used for creating device files in /dev.

Name:	MAKEDEV	Vendor:	Scientific Linux
Version:	3.15	License:	GPL
Release:	2	URL:	http://www.lanana.org/docs/device-list/

Summary

This package contains the MAKEDEV program, which makes it easier to create and maintain the files in the /dev directory. /dev directory files correspond to a particular device supported by Linux (serial or printer ports, scanners, sound cards, tape drives, CD-ROM drives, hard drives, etc.) and interface with the drivers in the kernel. You should install the MAKEDEV package because the MAKEDEV utility makes it easy to manage the /dev directory device files.
