I don't think that activate DevFS is a good idea. Think about Nvidia drivers 
users : just after the install there will have devfs enable (as devfsd is 
require by the kernel) and will have to desinstall devfsd (but how will they 
know that ?).
Second : what the interest of devfs ? at this time is it stable enough ?
Last but not least, I try the 2.4.7-6mdk and had 2 lookups ( asus k7v + 
2940U2w + GeForce + drivers nvidia - devfsd + SBLive + WinTV).
