Thank you Duncan for your contribution, but it doesn't help. The problem is not populating /dev on the root filesystem. The boot process stops before the root filesystem is even mounted. The real problem is udev segfaults inside initrd. Anyone has hints on this? -- Adde parvum parvo magnus acervus erit -- Ovidio -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
