not true... devfs can be set up to use "compatibility" symlinks where
it preserves the old kernel naming scheme with symlinks to the new

easy as compiling a kernel with devfs support and apt-get installing
devfsd (all my machines at home run devfs).



Keep in mind that DevFS support will be removed from kernel 2.6. A replacement is planned.
