Re: Bug#543717: Initramfs firmware loading fail due to udev being started too late
it has to be started earlier, that is clear. I haven't had the time to find out how early, aka at which state exactly. init-top so it it will be run early enough that it is present for /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and no one will need to do mknoding. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I see that some of the standard scripts manually run mknod to work around this. i'll have a look but won't have time before next weekend. such a big change needs to be well thought.
