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.
