Message:

As bootup device node creation via 'mdev -s' seems to be
broken on some devices (e.g. Asus WL500gP and fon2100),
manually create some really crucial device nodes:
tts/0 -> else no shell on the serial console (see /etc/inittab)
ptmx -> else no shell after login via ssh

(see Unix98 PTY Support kernel documentation)
