Oh no.  This one will match all your /dev/sda1 etc too :)
What yo want to do is either

   grep -w /dev /proc/mount

or

  awk '$2 == "/dev" { exit 0; } END { exit 1; }' /proc/mounts

or something similar.  To distinguish between the following
two cases:

/dev/sda1 / ext3 rw,noatime,data=ordered 0 0
devfs /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid,size=512k,mode=755 0 0
