I grabbed the cvs snapshot gentoo's been using, but I don't see any way to 
feed in a device list text file so I can create the /dev/console node root 
filesystems need without needing root access on the host to mknod.

genext2fs has the -D option, which takes:

  /dev d 755 0 0 - - - - -
  /dev/console c 640 0 0 5 1 0 0 -

gen_init_cpio takes:

  dir /dev 755 0 0
  nod /dev/console 660 0 0 c 5 1

Is there a squashfs option I'm missing...?
