As for the cookies, shrug so many sites require cookies and/or

The possible work around I have thought of is just getting the vanilla kernel
from kernel.org, but the gentoo wiki advise against it, since gentoo-sources
is a patched kernel.
With all due respect, Gentoo is the only distro

You may want to consider a swap file:

Now, also, from my understanding, this was already the case for some

So, if the udev you use is OK with no initrd, what is in the new udev
that actually

This time it has 4 attachments; afaik there were zero attachments the first
time (deleted email here so can't check now). No worries, files here now.
Do you have a /var/log/messages (might be in rotated, gzipped one even) that
includes the 3.6.10 *and* 3.7.1 boot?

The problems with that is these: It worked ALL these years, why should
it not now? I have / on a traditional partition which is not going to
resize easily.

Then came the decision to move udev inside /usr, forcing the issue.
Now, it'd been long understood that udev *itself* hadn't been broken.
The explanation given as much as a year earlier was that udev couldn't

I'm also interested in Bruce's history about initrd. Sounds like if
that worked today I'd just use it to make an initrd and be done with
