.dev is just a binding to the original (static) /dev/ that is created before udev mounts it's dynamic /dev over the existing one. So if you rm everything in /.dev you would delete everything in /dev which might be needed at boot time before udev is initialized. To solve your problem recreate /dev by copying it from another system, f.e. debian boot/rescue disks, knoppix etc or simply recreate the needing devices in /dev. AFAIR the only device needed on my system was /dev/null. Björn
