A simple question: in /etc/udev/rules.d/ (on the root partition!) I have a .rules file for one of my smartcard devices which has, among other things, this statement: PROGRAM="/bin/sleep 0.1" This program is not on the initramfs image, but it is in the /bin directory on the root partition. I was under the impression that root is not mounted until udev has finished its job - is that not the case? If so, how is this program executed then? I also have a lot of other statements with RUN+=... which also refer to executables not present in initramfs - they are all present in the root partition. When/How do these execute then? Am I missing something fundamental here?
udev runs a second time in the real root, just because of this limitation of the initramfs.
