Sorry but i'm not running udev !

That's the problem... FC3T2 is supposed to use udev.

I've run /sbin/MAKEDEV but it doesn't work anymore.

How? What commands did you run?

I still get "Unable to open an initial console"

Please, check if /dev/console exists. I guess this special chardev is missing.
