   That's been my experience.   
      
   But it's been a long time and the need for /dev may be handled by if   
   Slackware is using devfs or static dev files.   
      
   If the static dev files exist in the /dev directory of the root file   
   system, they would become available under /mnt/dev and probably suffice   
   for what lilo wants.   
      
   chrooting probably also needs /proc.   
      
   I'm not sure how GRUB changes any of this.
