- Speed (with long mdev.conf and full dynamic system the startup may get slow) - Update of mdev.conf for separate distro packages (mdev currently lacks an /etc/mdev.d feature ... may be this could be thrown in) - I don't know udev details, but mdev scripting may be different, so you need to replace all udev scripts to work with mdev (lot of work) - mdev lacks communication and integration with packages like some do with udev (like Xorg) ... but I don't like that type of integration at all (most packages can be compiled without udev integration and work perfectly without that integration if dev files/scripts get setup correctly) -- Harald _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
