Thanks for all your advice Andrew, but it now seems to be working. I think it was simply that I had not created a /sys folder and mounted it at start up. This I think is a prerequsite for hotpug??
The sys filesystem is needed by udev and I think udev calls the hotplug scripts. Or it used to. With more recent versions of udev it handles hotplug events itself, which is why I've stopped installing the hotplug scripts.
How do I get rid of these annoying warnings fronm hotplug though? Such as: which: no usb modules in (/sbin/bin etc. cannot synthesize root hub events. and: touch /var/log/... No such file or directory.
I don't remember the details. Open the hotplug scripts in a text editor, look for the particular phrase or error message and try to work out how the script ended up at that point. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
