I haven't used the newer versions of udev. I do have this in my kernel config tho: root@fireball / # cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep -i CONFIG_DEVTMPFS CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT=y root@fireball / # It may be best to search the archives for eudev and my email addy. I don't recall it being anything difficult. The issues I did run into has since been fixed. As I posted earlier, I installed the very early version. >From my understanding now tho, it should be as easy as unmerge udev and emerge eudev. I'd look at the messages after it emerges tho, just in case. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
