OK, I got the -145 version to build with pretty much everything disabled, so I think just the base implementation. The only binaries that are showing up in the udev-145/udev directory are: test-udev udevadm udevd Now I'm going to copy these binaries to the /bin directory of my USB filesystem and try to start udevd. I don't want to use install, just cp, which means I'm not going to use make install from the distro. I'll need to copy some rules I suppose, and there are a number of files in the rules directory. I'm guessing I don't need the rules from the distro directories. If I copy the rules from the rules.d directory only, will that be enough?
