Reportedly this happens with the following image: http://repo.oddthesis.org/releases/jboss-cloud/1.0.0.Beta5/x86_64/management-appliance/management-appliance-1.0.0.Beta5-raw.tar.gz
Looks like the interesting error is: MAKEDEV: no such group: floppy I looked at the source for MAKEDEV[1] and if it encounters this error, it will quit early without creating any of the rest of the devices. I confirmed with Marek that the floppy group is missing from /etc/group, and also that only devices up to the point of making the floppy devices were created.

Long fixed, since we now use udev to create the devices.
