correct syntax is helpful: mknod tty1 c 4 1 works, of course.

Nevertheless, there seem to be too few devs...

It might happen if you copy your current file system image from a distribution that uses udev by default, such as RHE4. On those systems, normally /dev have very little entry, sometimes only /dev/console and /dev/null. During startup, a ramdisk was mounted on /dev and entries are created automatically.

Short work around, just tar your /dev from a "normal" working installation, and un-tar it on your Xen domain. IMHO, this is faster than mknod-ing each entry manually.
