     The shell script MMAAKKEEDDEEVV, found in the _/_d_e_v directory, is used to create
     the common special files.

     MMAAKKEEDDEEVV takes any number of device names as arguments, where the names
     are the common abbreviation for the device.  There are two special de-
     vices, _s_t_d and _l_o_c_a_l. The former creates the standard devices for the ar-
     chitecture.  The latter is for devices specific to the local site, and
     executes the shell file _M_A_K_E_D_E_V_._l_o_c_a_l.

     The HP300 supports the following devices.  Where a device name is fol-
     lowed by a hash sign `#', the hash sign must be replaced by a unit num-
     ber.
     _s_t_d     the standard devices (_c_o_n_s_o_l_e, _d_r_u_m, _f_d_/_*, _k_l_o_g, _k_m_e_m, _m_e_m, _n_u_l_l,
             _s_t_d_e_r_r, _s_t_d_i_n, _s_t_d_o_u_t, _t_t_y).
     _l_o_c_a_l   configuration specific devices.
     _c_t_#     HP300 HP-IB cartridge tape.
     _c_c_d_#    ``concatenated'' pseudo-disks.
     _r_d_#     HP300 HP-IB disks
     _s_d_#     HP300 SCSI disks.
     _v_n_d_#    ``file'' pseudo-disks.
     _d_c_a_#    HP200/300 single port serial interface.
     _d_c_m_#    HP200/300 4 port serial mux interface.
     _p_t_y_#    set of 16 master and slave pseudo terminals.
     _f_l_o_g_#   kernel logging device.
     _g_r_f_#    raw interface to HP300 graphics devices.
     _i_t_e_#    terminal emulator interface to HP300 graphics devices.
     _h_i_l     HP300 HIL input devices.
     _r_a_n_d_o_m  Random number generator
