          NAME
               devnm - device name

          SYNOPSIS
               /etc/devnm [names]

          DESCRIPTION
               The devnm command identifies the special file associated
               with the mounted file system where the argument name
               resides.

               This command is most commonly used by /etc/brc [see brc(1M)]
               to construct a mount table entry for the root device.

          EXAMPLE
               The command:
                    /etc/devnm /usr
               produces
                    /dev/dsk/0s3
               if /usr is mounted on /dev/dsk/0s3.

          FILES
               /dev/dsk/*
               /etc/mnttab
