Greetings.
I noticed that udev have extras disabled and durning compile the
kernel (3.0.3). Kernel build failed because cdrom_id in
/lib/udev/cdrom_id is missing. Any idea on why this is disabled recently and
how to fix this problem.
I think kernel 3.0 should be able to compile without udev-extras. But
I do not know how to disable it and what would be the side effect for
this.

Ray, Xu
I ran into the same problim a while back when building T2 for MIPS64 on Suse & Ubuntu
Build hosts.
I tried enabling the extras, but that yielded further build errors. ( I't was a while ago
and I don't remember the details)
Since I was building for an embedded system, which will never need a cdrom, and did not
use the T2 initrd, I just got rid of the line that caused the failure.
If you are stuck, and need to finish your build, you can do what I did, and then check the
final result for any side effects of running without a cdrom_id file.
I was hoping there would be a proper fix for this by now, (ideas anyone?) below is my
crude work-around to allow the build to finish:
