AFAIK, it must exist already if you use a static device file system,
unless you use a dynamic fs like devfs. Can you try to create device
manually with using below command:

shell# mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0

If that works, though it probably will, you can create other nodes
(video1, video2, etc.) by looking at related major and minor device
numbers in linux/Documentation/devices.txt

For an immediat test you can try sth like that:

shell# apt-get install xawtv
shell# xawtv -c /dev/video0


Regards.
