Title udev-181 unmasking
Author William Hubbs <willi...@gentoo.org>

Revision 1
udev-181 is being unmasked on 2012-03-19.
This news item is to inform you that once you upgrade to a version of
udev >=181, if you have /usr on a separate partition, you must boot
your
system with an initramfs which pre-mounts /usr.
An initramfs which does this is created by
>=sys-kernel/genkernel-3.4.25.1 or
>=sys-kernel/dracut-017-r1. If you do not want to use these tools, be
sure any initramfs you create pre-mounts /usr.
Also, if you are using OpenRC, you must upgrade to >= openrc-0.9.9.
For more information on why this has been done, see the following URL:

Hi,
has anybody followed the route shown in
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Basic_initramfs_used_to_check_and_mount_/usr
Thanks for sharing your experience,
Helmut.
