Question-
in the initramfs /init generated by mayflower-
...
"
export PATH=/sbin:/bin
exec < /dev/console > /dev/console 2>&1
mount -n -t tmpfs -o mode=0755 udev /dev
mknod /dev/console c 5 1
mknod /dev/null c 1 3
"
...
Is this a bug that /dev/console is being referenced before it is
created, or is there some obscure magic relating to /dev/console that I
am unaware of?
