Yes, there is. Only /dev/console and /dev/null must be present on real /dev 
(hidden under tmpfs). See 
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter06/udev.html for 
a list of devices and directories to be copied from /lib/udev/devices to 
/dev (tmpfs) on each boot. Note, however, that udev in LFS is slightly 
misconfigured (wrong names for DVB cards, and the create_floppy_devices 
script is never called).
