I think it would make more sense to say udev bootscript and a reason, like the one mentioned above, instead of the bootscripts in general. The comment is open to a lot of interpretation.
I won't be offended if anyone wants to change the wording. It wasn't mine to start with and it doesn't seem that accurate. I'm just not in a big hurry to change it. And I'm pretty sure it was issues with udev/sysfs that drove that decision. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
