Hm, this is very strange. Block devices such as /dev/sd? are directly created by the kernel and made available via devtmpfs. Mounting /proc and /dev is one of the first things done in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init way before systemd-udevd is started. If you have no block devices at all, I'm at a loss what's going wrong. >> ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid > > /dev/disk does not exist. The devices in /dev/disk/by-?/ are symlinks pointing at the real devices. Those are actually created by udev. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
