OK, we can do this. It's in section 6.2.1, not 6.2.21. > C.2. The whole "Create some devices and directories ..." in > "udev-1xx" should go. Misleading, outdated and nonsensical. No, it really can't go. I went into my sandbox, deleted /lib/udev/devices/null, and commented out the copy to /dev in the udev bootscript. When I rebooted, I got the following messages: cannot open /dev/null FATAL: Module platform: regulatory not set FATAL: Module LNXSYSTEM: not found FATAL: Module doc not found FATAL: pci:v............... not found This last was repeated about 20 times for various pci values. When I added null back to /lib/udev/devices/ and reenabled the copy in the bootscripts, I got none of these messages. The system did boot in both cases, but we can't advocate a system that produces these errors. Unfortunately, the error messages did not show up in dmesg. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
