Hi-
I am trying to convert to using udev instead of devfs.  I need to load a
raid controller module to access to root fs.  I am using mkinitrd to
create the initrd, however the root partition is not mounting.

The driver module is loading but the root partition is not mounting.
The partition is fine and ext3 is compiled into the kernel.  This was
working when using devfs.

How do I get this to work?  Do I need devfs compiled into the kernel?

Thanks for the help,
Joe Rizzo
