Not sure what mknod /dev/tty 6 0 c is supposed to do, It returned the help 
message when I did the mknod command.  I'm not sure if I've got the right 
syntax.
"mknod(space)/dev/tty(space)6(space)0(space)c"
That doesn't get rid of the /dev/tty* file, not sure how to do that either.
And yes that was the results of ls -la and the find syntax was "find / 
-name "*\*" -print -xdev
