I switched to eudev when the separate /usr thing popped up. While I am watching this thread and sort of taking mental notes, I'm hoping this is not a eudev thing, even in the future. I'm just hoping people will be able to find a solution to this that works well for them. I especially wish that for those managing a remote system with little or no physical access.
