Hi group,
Having upgraded from the 2.6.23 kernel to the 2.6.28 and enabling the rt2x00
driver I get the following message at boot
...
* UDEV: Your system has a problem assigning persistent
* names to these network interfaces: wlan0-rename
* Checking persistent rules:
* Found no duplicate names in persistent-net rules
* there must be some other problem!
...
some background:

^^^^^^
rausb0 was the former name, when I was using the older kernel w/o Ralink
support and the driver had to be downloaded from the serialmonkey site.
Why is udev confused?
The old driver, rt2750, is *not* being used:
