Is there any docu what is exactly needed? The RHEL 2.6.18 has: CONFIG_SYSFS=y CONFIG_INOTIFY=y CONFIG_INOTIFY_USER=y So it seem signalfd is missing. Does somebody know if it possible to backport signalfd to 2.6.18? What else is required for udev? - Dietmar _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
