I've learn a lot of new thinks too! The dir /dev/shm is one of the few in /dev non managed by udev. The mountvirtfs init script have to be called before udev because udev needs procfs, that is mounted by mountvirtfs. I've noted that disabling udev at boot the /dev/shm permissions were right, so mountvirtfs was doing his job. It was udev called after that broke the things. Reinstalling udev (and to be sure sys-rc and initscript) solved the problem. A sincere thanks to all the guys have helped me :-). Best Regards, ~ Antonio
