CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED
Hi, suddently i get this message on startup: udev: deprecated sysfs layout; update the kernel or disable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; some udev features will not work correctly My.config looks like: CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y Must it be commented (#) or setted to n ? B.R.

And if it did behave as you predict, deprecated is hardly sufficient warning! Well, I should have been far more precise about it. It can hang in certain configs. It did here, and I needed a live-cd to fix the issue. It could well depend on your arch, kernel config, and set of packages installed, as well as whether you're using an initrd or not. Too bad I didn't have the time to fix or track it, so I used a live-cd, downgraded udev to 146-something, got it to boot, fixed things up in the kernel, and it is now working properly. It was not reported to the BTS, since it would justly deserve an unreproducible needsinfo set of tags most likely, and I'd have no further info to contribute. -- One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED
I was fixing a problem with my root login and Orbit/Gnome. One of the things that was recommended was to do apt-get upgrade apt-get update Somehow in the process of doing that, there were some changes to the kernel. Now when I try to boot, I get the message ... update kernel or disable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPECATED I went into /boot and edited config_2.6.26_2-amd64 and changed the y to n for both CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED and CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2, but the error message remains. I can boot into single user mode and access the system, but I can't do a complete system boot. It hangs on the CPUFreq part. I would like to get my laptop back without completely rebuilding the OS.

Any suggestions? The config file in /boot tells you what options the kernel was configered with, it doesn't affect the installed kernel. You need to recompile your kernel with those options or install an upgraded kernel (don't know what debian uses at the moment, been using custom kernels for several years now) Giff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Check apt's log files to get a clue what actually happened. Now when I try to boot, I get the message ... update kernel or disable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPECATED This should be negligible.

Did you try to disable the script you suspect to be the culprit? Do you have entries in your syslog from failed boot attempts? Did you enable the boot log (etc/default/bootlogd)?
