[SM-Users] Big Problem after sorcery update

Hi, this appears to be due to a lack of a symlink between /dev/fd and
/proc/self/fd. I've been able to reproduce your symptoms by removing my
/dev/fd symlink...

output of  ls -ld /dev/fd
should be
lr-xr-xr-x  1 root root 13 Nov 22 22:11 /dev/fd -> /proc/self/fd

fix by running
ln -s /proc/self/fd/ /dev
Then start using devfsd which will do it automatically, or by running
that in from /etc/sysconfig/bootmisc

Perhaps devfsd should be always installed on systems using devfs...
