I think that the problems really stems from the undue "/dev" entries.
In the last step of vserver creation, I just had to delete the entries
that are not in Herbert's short list. And the phenomenon disappeared.

But out of curiosity, I'd like to know which of the entries below are
dangerous enough to hang the keyboard and by what mechanism it happens
('*' is not litteral, but indicates several entries of the same type):

 MAKEDEV
 agpgart
 audio*
 console
 core
 dsp*
 kmem
 loop*
 mem
 midi*
 mixer*
 mpu401*
 port
 ram*
 rmidi*
 sequencer
 shm
 smpte*
 sndstat
 tty0

(3)
Then, for Debian-oriented people, why does "debootstrap" create
those entries? For example, I certainly didn't ask it to install
any sound-related packages, yet it created those "mixer", "midi",
"dsp" and whatever. Should this be considered a bug?

Thanks and best regards,
Gilles
