This looks complex and requiring coordination among multiple packages. Where is the documentation of everything which needs to be done by the surrounding boot scripts? Will anything break if I still create an empty /dev/.udev/ for the benefit of everything which checks for it to know if udev is running? > If you support LVM, please make sure to conflict udev if neccessary > with older initramfs implementations, so that no new udev gets into an > old initramfs image, udev puts the data in /dev/.run/ which isn't its > own mountpoint, and the real root would overmount the udev directory.
