Subject: [PATCH 03/16] hurd-boot: Support system init: Create essential device
 nodes.
Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2024 10:16:59 +0200

* gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (make-hurd-device-nodes): Cater for existing
directories (dev, servers).
(set-hurd-device-translators): Remove /servers/socket/1, that is created by
libexec/console-run.  Cater for nonexistent /dev/console.
(boot-hurd-system): Call make-hurd-device-nodes on initial run.
