What /dev management solution are you using? Static? Dynamic? If you're using one of the dynamic solutions (devtmpfs, mdev or udev), make sure that your kernel is built with CONFIG_DEVTMPFS and CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT. When the kernel is built by Buildroot, Buildroot automatically enables those options. When your kernel is built manually, you have to make sure those options are enabled.
