All boot OK, (custom kernel no initrd) no special setups, like raid or lvm. My usb devices are with the correct perms (4-in-1 reader, pendrive, ipod, mp3 player). The firmware for my printer is loaded OK, and kvm-88 still boot both arches (Arch Linux kernel):)
One sidenote, this version support ACL, so I guess that is better now to switch /dev from ramfs to tmpfs in initscripts. (the current udev documentation talks about tmpfs not ramfs)
By the way, doing this also will help, at least in one step, this feature request (FS#15612 - better support for selinux) [#1]
I filled a FS [#1] with the patch
Sidenote2: This udev bump from minimal kernel version from 2.6.22 to 2.6.25 (mandatory) because use the signalfd(). An announce required?
Wowzers, I'm not so sure we want to do that. We just got scared with glibc from going past 2.6.18, this is a rather significant jump (and I know my current Xen kernel is .24).
Is there a way to build udev without requiring this call? The discussions with the minimal kernel version for our glibc did not even venture beyond the .24 version...
Or trying if run OK with kernel older than 2.6.25, signalfd is present in kernel since 2.6.22, but there are some bugs (at least one is documented in the manual page) and some changes in recent kernels. See the man-page signalfd(2).
oops, I didn't answer your question: No, there are no way to disable it. Udev from >= 142 is changed in a big step. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fhotplug%2Fudev.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=commit&s=worker -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi ( djgera ) http://www.djgera.com.ar KeyID: 0x1B8C330D Key fingerprint = 0CAA D5D4 CD85 4434 A219 76ED 39AB 221B 1B8C 330D
