The busybox start script (/etc/init.d/rcS) runs my udev start script (/etc/init.d/start_udev.sh) which in turn runs udevadm trigger as one of the last steps: [...] udevd --daemon --debug mkdir -p /dev/.udev/queue/ /dev/.udev/rules.d/ create_dev_root_rule /dev/.udev/ udevadm trigger create_dev_makedev udevadm settle exit 0 Again, I have to admit I do not really understand what create_dev_makedev is for (copied from debian), but I am quite sure it can do no harm... >From my understanding, this should generate all the events - and I see the event is there, because of this: 18.530148 [586] udev_device_new_from_syspath: device 0x40770 has devpath '/devices/platform/orion-ehci.0/usb1/1-1/1-1:1.0/host2/target2:0:0/2:0:0:0/block/sda/sda1' 18.530268 [586] udev_rules_apply_to_event: LINK 'block/8:1' //libexec/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules:3 18.530343 [586] udev_rules_apply_to_event: GROUP 0 //libexec/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules:72 18.530490 [586] udev_device_new_from_syspath: device 0x3eb40 has devpath '/devices/platform/orion-ehci.0/usb1/1-1/1-1:1.0/host2/target2:0:0/2:0:0:0/block/sda' 18.530894 [586] udev_device_read_db: device 0x3eb40 filled with db file data All I am missing is the "RUN" line here.
