According to the fd man page:
3.5 inch high density device files:
Name Capac. Cyl. Sect. Heads Base minor #
fdnH1440 1440K 80 18 2 28
And that's what MAKEDEV created for me.
In any case, you should not need to run MAKEDEV - udev is supposed to take care of creating device nodes. If you create your own, it will not survive a reboot.
[mrsam@commodore dev]$ ls -al fd0H1440 fd0u1440 brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 2, 28 2009-09-22 19:52 fd0H1440 brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 2, 28 2009-09-22 19:52 fd0u1440 It's the same device node.I don't know whether at some point in the last couple of years the commonly accepted naming convention for floppy device nodes has changed, or if this is a Fedora-ism. If the standard naming convention has changed, then I'll update floppy as soon as I see where the new naming convention is documented. But, as of now, this is what the fd man page says the naming convention should be, and that's what MAKEDEV creates.
