[X-Unix] System files being deleted! (/dev/stdout...)

[Kuestner, Bjoern]

(So glad this didn't happen to me. After starting the "/dev basics" thread
everybody would have thought I messed with /dev and now have to pay for it.)

> And sure enough, /dev/stdout was missing. Along with /dev/stdin, /dev/
> stderr and the directory /dev/fd!

>From the things I learnt over the last days you're probably missing /dev/fs,
because /dev/std* are links to the devices in /dev/fd.

Now, as to what could have caused this ... no idea.
