- Subject: [SM-Discuss] update on udev on /dev status
- Date: Mon, 1 Mar 2004 16:47:56 +0100
Hi,
attached are new spells for init.d, simpleinit-msb and udev.
Changes to the current system:
- there's a new runlevel %DEV which gets started before %S for setting
up /dev (needed because the devices script has to be run alone)
- the init.d spell now asks whether you want to use devfs, udev or
static dev on /dev
- inittab gets installed by init.d now (saves a trigger for
simpleinit-msb)
- you can switch between the different /dev systems by a cast -r -c
init.d
- if you use devfs on /dev you _don't_ need devfs=mount, it will be
mounted in the same way as the ramfs udev uses
What's still missing:
- the init.d spell should create a static /dev tree when the user
chooses udev or static /dev, i need a makedevices script for that,
anyone got a complete one lying around?
- /etc/fstab and /etc/securetty need to be changed by hand to use the
correct devices, not yet sure how to handle this automatically
The order in which you install the spells shouldn't matter, just make
sure you install all three changed spells if you want to use udev, or
simpleinit-msb and init.d if you want static /dev or devfs.
