Oh, udev creates things like /dev/disk/*, but it seems I wrongfully
though it would create all the missing nodes. Per
<http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter07/udev.html>,
seems we may need to mount /dev as devtmpfs as you wrote.
(And I thought devtmpfs was the deprecated thing, but no, it’s devfs
that’s deprecated. Oh well.)
