Sounds like this bug could have been avoided if /dev/null and /dev/console were provided as static entries in udev package? Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Possibly, but the real answer is don't do that. initrd-tools doesn't support udev. That's what initramfs-tools is for. Given that initrd-tools is only in stable, this bug won't ever get fixed. In another few months, Lenny will be released and then initrd-tools will go away forever. Tks, Jeff
