I'm a bit surprised they didn't stick with 168, really. Even udev 175 requires a /usr mount in the initramfs, and devtmpfs (though the latter is easy to replace). The former is probably a good idea anyway. The latter... for any system other than the very largest, or embedded systems that must boot in a second or less, I can't see a benefit. -- NULL && (void) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
