Re: [/ is full] How to delete junk in /dev ?

Sometimes I have made the mistake of dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd2c - instead of dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd2c - or worse dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc. These kind of errors have filled /dev (or ultimately /)

Play over from my Linux days.

Everything this command finds except /dev/MAKEDEV can be removed.
Most likely this is a dd(1) gone wrong.
