Create menu entry to select device creation method
Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now proposed: - static method uses device table as before - devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel - mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system and selects mdev itself for installation - udev method selects udev for installation All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care about /dev folder.
