instructions, add 'mkdir /lib/udev/devices/{shm,pts}' to the first

well. ;-)


Thanks DJ.  I was wondering why I needed to do that too.


As the branch stands I don't seem to have a working hotplug - that it
although udevd is running, no events get monitored by udevmonitor when a
USB device goes in.  However since mine is a a non-branch SVN converted
to Udev (no hotplug) I may have missed something.

Are there any specific kernel configs that udev needs that I didn't need
before?

Not that I'm aware of, Richard. I'm trying to get a rebuild of the branch done this weekend following the book. Unfortunately something's not quite going right with the toolchain (chapter 6 binutils won't build). It's certainly operator error, I've just got to figure out which of my scripts is to blame. Once that's done I'll be in a much better position to verify the problems you guys are encountering and offer some more definite advice.

Regards,

Matt.
