There's another option, too: mdev, from busybox: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Mdev It works well if you have a rather simple system. I.e., for me, headless machines (most of the time), PS/2 KB and mouse when not headless, one network interface (wired, no wifi), separate /usr, no disk encryption, and use static IP addresses (IPv4, IPv6). Additionally, there is a sep-usr flag to the busybox package that people running /usr on a different partition might want to look into. It installs a /ginit file that assists in getting /usr mounted early enough w/o a initramfs so that things don't break. Though, I am also not using that on my x86_64 box and it boots fine, so YMMV. -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS ku...@gentoo.org 4096R/D25D95E3 2011-03-28 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
