Are you running udev?  If so, could be a number of things.  First if you're
using the tar file (specified in /etc/conf.d/rc) the /dev node might be
disappearing (to fix I think you need to remake the dev node and rebuild the
tar file).  Other problems here with udev is the lack of an appropriate rule
for the device creation...

Other possibilities are that if you're using kernel mods for the ppp
support, I know my devices don't get created until the module has been
loaded (at which point the devices appear).  You might have some module
issues on your end.

Sorry can't be of more help...

Dave
