6.3B update procedure

The update procedure created the devices ttypf and ptypf.

2 bugs:

1) these are assigned the same major/minor numbers as ttyv0/ptyv0, and
hence shouldn't exist

2) the update software said it was creating block devices, but it (as it
should) really created character devices.
