+Readme file for MAKEDEV-C:
+
+MAKEDEV is a program to create the special file entries found in /dev.
+MAKEDEV-C is a compiled binary that runs from a config file, called
+DEVINFO. The config file is intended to be fairly human-readable, as
+well as machine-readable.
+
+New in release 1.4.1:
+
+Substantial updates to DEVINFO. Most notably:
+	- hdc and hdd are now the drives on the 2nd IDE controller. 
+	  This is NOT how it used to be, nor is it how the shell MAKEDEV
+	  does it, but it's what the kernel source indicates is right.
+	- SCSI tapes were totally messed up in the last release.
+	- New and more appropriate QIC device names.
+	- Assorted fixes. (See DEVINFO itself for more details.)
+
+Some changes to the sample MAKEDEV.cfg:
+	- added a class "system" (root.system, mode 660)
+	- do not omit hdc and hdd by default, as they now mean
+	  something more useful than they used to.
