remove /dev/dsk using sed in a file

Hello,

I have a file with all the disk, stating with /dev/dsk/c1r2d3 and so on.

How can I remove /dev/dsk/ and just keep c1t2d3 in the file.

Appreciate your help.

Regards,

Mp

Nothing magic about "/" here. If something
else would be more convenient, then use it
instead.

$ echo '/dev/dsk/c1r2d3' | sed -e 's|/dev/dsk/||'
c1r2d3
