It's not the unix way. What's wrong with using standard utilities?
sh MAKEDEV cd0 cd1 cd4 $(jot -w da 2) $(jot -w da 4 6)
(`jot -w da 2' is bug for bug compatible with your expanded list because
the default `begin' arg is 1, but disk numbers begin with 0, so -da2
should probably mean da0 da1 da2.)
I can never remember syntaxes for rarely used commands like jot and
MAKEDEV, so I would just type all the names if there are a small number
of units, or use a shell loop for a large number of units.
