Hi all,

I have been looking at the handbook section regarding a qemu-user chroot
and have some serious concerns about part of it.  Specifically, in the
section for setting up the chroot it is suggested to run

chroot . /bin/busybox mdev -s

Since I (like most others) am currently running udev, this seems to me like
a very bad idea.  (And indeed this is confirmed when I try it on my dev VM,
where the permissions for /dev/pts /dev/null /dev/random etc. are messed up
by this)

Can someone please explain the logic here, since as far as I can tell so
far, simply omitting this step does no major harm.

Cheers

Phil Tooley
