Confirmed. Something about this procedure with 2.6.8-rc4 is hosing
/dev/null, and I have to delete it and mknod again. Is this a known
bug, or have I discovered something that everybody's known about
forever, and I should slink away. Or maybe I don't understand how to
build/install 2.6 correctly?

for starters:

useradd -m jeglin
su - jeglin
tar xfj linux-2.6.8.1.tar.bz2
cd linux-2.6.8.1
make menuconfig
make all
cd ~jeglin/linux-2.6.8.1
make modules_install
reboot

the binutils check (?) will remove /dev/null
