Hi Marcel, I see that the call for "mdev -s" is already in the init.1 file for creating the initial device nodes; has this call just moved to init.1 from the usb file in initramfs? I also notice that there isn't a /etc/mdev.conf file and that during boot I see all these error messages to the terminal about the mdev.conf file missing? Did that get removed at the same time on Oct 10th?
How did you change the usb script to get it to boot on actual crownbeach hw? Or was the response below a general comment for where the files changed?
