Device Node files

Hey, so I'm attempting to move my filesystem to a compact flash card, but I need to populate the /dev directory with actual device node files. The refrence guide only goes so far as to suggest using mknod or scripts available on the web. Where are these scripts? Is there any way to take advantage of the information in the /dev directory when I mount a working filesystem on the onboard flash of my Stratix board?
