I have just tryed it, but when udev starts, after a nice kernel boot and
going to init 5, it goes in segmentation fault, so no device can be
managed: i.e. the X server does not start since there is no access to
video card, the mouse and usb devices are not active, and so on ... :(

I have a FC5, updated.
