As I prepare/consider to upgrade a remote gentoo server later this
evening I prefer to ask twice:
the running kernel 3.5.7 does not have CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y
I built a new kernel (upgrading it to 3.6.11 btw) with CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y
and plan to reboot the server at first.
After a hopefully correct reboot (can't access that server physically) I
plan to upgrade udev ... (I won't enable the new networking naming, btw).
Right now I upgrade lvm2 in advance as it doesn't pull in udev yet.
Pls comment or correct my plans ;-) thanks, Stefan
