Actually, you can kill udev and restart it. Kill the process and
then run "/sbin/udevd --daemon" and it will be started again.
If you're restarting services yourself instead of switching
runlevels to get them all at once, you can still use the
initscripts.
# /etc/init.d/udev restart
That doesn't work in baselayout 1 tho. If I switch to single user,
udevd is still running. The only way to stop it is to kill it.

That looks like a bug. Heh, it would be nice if the initscripts worked
with the current stable version of baselayout.
The devs intended for it not to work with baselayout 1 so they know
this. I think it is in a Gentoo doc somewhere. I was trying to figure
out how udev was starting when the script was not in any runlevel and
was stopped, while udev had a process running. I ran up on the doc when
trying to figure this mess out.
So, for baselayout 2, use the script. For baselayout 1, just kill the
process and restart with udevd --daemon.
