I take your approach that udev should not need to be supervised. If it crashes, I have this line in my crontab: " */5 * * * * for svc in $(rc-status --crashed); do rc-service $svc -- --nodeps restart; done" On my system, I have atd, crond, acpid, klogd and svlogd as supervised processes. I plan to move from syslogd to rsyslogd, so, it might change a little. Thanks Joe
