using devfs in the install kernels would solve all thes problems, but
changes have to be made in subroutines-linux.

1) this solves the device problem (of cause you have to compile also the
   installed kernels with devfs support)
   
2) Enumeration of all harddisks would be as simple as "ls /dev/discs",
   what should enumerate both ide and scsi disks.

3) in nfsroot, something like "detect" should be used to probe scsi and
   other controllers, so /dev/discs is representative...


point 1 and 3 work already here (physics department of free university
of berlin), point2 has to be implemented into subroutines-linux...
