Not to beat a dead horse (since this got discussed in another thread) but it seems that backing up the entire /dev to get a couple nodes is overkill.
Also, the stage4 guide tells you how to create all the basic /dev nodes you'd need, including the tty1 that gensplash uses (just this one is marked optional since only gensplash uses will need it.

In fact, I know that too, but for someone who doesn't want to take extra care, then it's the simpliest way  |

Touché, though it would seem like a good idea to remove the unneeded nodes from the archive (and that'll likely be a significant space-saver since nearly ever node is unneeded for the archive).
