Here's a typical code snippet from the init script:

+[2] echo /sbin/mdev > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug

The simple explanation here is that [1] you need to have /sys mounted before
-executing mdev. Then you [2] instruct the kernel to execute /bin/mdev whenever
+executing mdev. Then you [2] instruct the kernel to execute /sbin/mdev whenever
a device is added or removed so that the device node can be created or
destroyed. Then you [3] seed /dev with all the device nodes that were created
while the system was booting.
