Hmm... so, would it be possible to, say, make a tarball of the /dev

Well, I have not tried it, but it may work. Give it a try and see
what happens. Just make sure you do not overwrite the entries that
are there, or make a backup of the /dev directory before you write
the new entries. There may also be a script in the /dev directory
when you boot with coLinux that will create the device entries for
you... I have not looked to see if it is still there.

You could just copy the MAKEDEV script into your filesystem and use it
to create whatever device nodes you need. And overwriting an existing
device node won't cause problems, it's not a real file, just don't
change its device numbers.
