hi list

I've just uploaded a "udev" contrib package. 

udev replaces the "normal" static /dev directory with a dynamic ram-based 
filesystem. This means: only device-nodes for hardware that actually 
exists in the system, stable device-names based on hardware IDs, and more

Would be cool, if there are brave users out there who could try this their
dev-systems :)
I've udev running on IDE-only systems for some weeks now. But haven't tested
X / sound / $whatever.

The way I implemented the init script, udev starts *after* mounting all local
filesystems. This means there is currently no 100% way to get it working with 
evms.
There is also a small problem with tsl-initrd not generating new initrds, but 
this should be fixed soon.

The tmpfs is mounted over the static /dev directory during boot.
So, if it's *not* working for you, just disable udev via chkconfig and you have 
your
old static /dev directory back after a reboot.

Thanks in advance
Olaf
