Re: [DNG] Can dracut use vdev?

Hi Steve, I've never tried it with dracut; all of my efforts have been getting it to work with Debian's initramfs tools. I don't know how tightly coupled dracut is to udev, but it's worth investigating at some point :) -Jude On Wed, Aug 12, 2015 at 8:41 AM, Steve Litt wrote: > Hi all, > > Is

Re: [DNG] Congratulations to the Devuan team

Thank you everyone for your kind words about vdev! I apologize for not posting much about it for the past few weeks. I had been on vacation earlier, and now almost all of my spare time between getting back and September 12 is taken up by finishing up my PhD thesis and gearing up for a conference

Re: [DNG] Congratulations to the Devuan team

About vdev... It looks like it's almost ready for prime time, but that further testing is needed to work out any bugs. So I'd like to throw out a little suggestion to expedite that. Could someone come up with a package so that we can install vdev on Debian? In my case, I'm currently using antiX a

I downloaded Alpha 2 and placed it on a USB key with unetbootin. When I boot a Thinkpad x250 with Alpha 2 iso, it comes up with "Missing parameter error". However, when I provide Install at the "Boot:" prompt, it boots to the installer. However, on a i386 desktop machine for which I would really

[DNG] Can dracut use vdev?

Hi all, Is there anyone here using dracut on a system that uses vdev instead of udev? Does it work OK? Thanks, SteveT Steve Litt August 2015 featured book: Troubleshooting: Just the Facts http://www.troubleshooters.com/tjust ___ Dng mailing list Dng@

Re: [DNG] Congratulations to the Devuan team

Vdev is now in a functional state and I use it on my desktop everyday. vdev is now doing everything I used udev for. I however don't use it in initramfs where I use busybox mdev. More testers would probably be good for more use-cases so agreed now packaging would be desired. But as I said befo

Re: [DNG] Dng Digest, Vol 11, Issue 37

Hey Aleskandro, awesome ! It could be a good idea to create a simbolic link to /devuan_version/ (named /debian_versio//n)/ in order to avoid any similar case in the future, simply adding: rm -f /etc/debian_version ln -s /etc/devuan_version /etc/debian_version to the postinstall script in the

Re: [DNG] Congratulations to the Devuan team

We all know Devuan is going to create a huge ripple in the great big pond, and join the ranks of the pro-choicers in regards to software usage. While I'm following vdev closely, mostly to backport it to another distribution, Devuan's success will bring success to other choice giving distributio
