Wait a minute. This is getting interesting. I seem to hear you saying
that, until Devuan has vdev, I could replace udev with mdev from
busybox, but only if I don't use a "full-fledged desktop environment."
As far as I understand, mdev knows only about a subset of devices, and has
no fancy rules implemented by udev; vdev on the other hand tries to do as
much of udev does as reasonably possible.
mdev's purpose is to boot a simple rescue system.
You're a server guy, whereas I'm a desktop guy who likes to have his
underlying operating system built like a server. Given my situation, it
looks to me like I'd need to just replace udev commands with mdev
commands in a few rc scripts and init scripts. That sound reasonable?
Depends if you want just simple "mount /dev/sda" or some raid on encrypted
lvm. Connected via iSCSI for an extra bonus.
Meow!
Mdev does not come by default with a config file with all possible
devices one can find on a computer. But, is has a simple config file in
which you can add all the devices you want, provided you know what you
are doing. This is the main job a distro would need to provide it.
AFAIR.
