<para>Also, if earlier in Chapter 6 you were unable to mount the devpts
filesystem because your host uses devfs, we will now mount that devfs
system over top of this new static /dev structure. This poses no problems,
as the device nodes created are still present, they are just hidden by the
new devfs filesystem. Run the following command to mount devfs, if necessary:

<para>It means that your host system does not support devpts. You have two
options at this point. You can either not worry about it, in which case some
of the tests we will run later will fail, or you can use the following command
from a terminal not in chroot to put your host's pts system into your new
LFS's filesystem:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>mount --bind /dev/pts $LFS/dev/pts</userinput></screen>
</para>
<para>This most likely means that your host system uses devfs, and does not
have the necessary support for devpts in the kernel. To work around this
problem, we will place the host's devfs system on top of the new /dev
structure later, in the section where we run the MAKEDEV script.</para>
