/dev and /proc are both mounted file systems. They are just special, because they are not disk based.

Look at the output of mount. It should list both /dev and /proc.

Thanks for the reply. The mount output shows /proc but not /dev. In additional it seems each ext3 mounted filesystem has a different $dev value (which to me makes sense since each is on a separate partition). The ext3 filesystems seems to have a $dev value of >760 while the specials like /dev have a value of <50. It is reliable to use that to determine which is which?
