The problem here is that the kernel or init (?) requires a /dev/console device very early in the boot process, before udev gets mounted. This means that even if you're using udev (and maybe devfs) then you still need some static entries in /dev that will be overlayed by the udev ramdisk. Obviously, this is a difficult problem to correct in the mkinitrd script, since you'd have to unmount /dev to make sure those entries were present. I'll prob. add something about this to the README sometime, when I get a chance to work on this script... -- Jeff _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
