[SOLVED] kernel starting two versions of udev

ron9 · 2011-08-03 21:47:40

dmesg tells me that I have two versions of udev running.

dmesg | grep -i udev
udevd[74]: starting version 172
udevd[247]: starting version 173

This is not normal behavior is it? Maybe some bug?

Edit: Kernel is 3.0-2

I can confirm the same behaviour here, but I don't know if its really an issue or not .

Rebuild your initramfs.

I'm not shore how to rebuild initramfs. Do you mean :

# mkinitcpio -p vmlinuz-linux

For kernel 3.0-2?

I think calling kernel26 should work as there are compatibility symlinks for /boot.

Ok. But I have changed grub to boot kernel 3.0 with vmlinuz-linux and initramfs-linux.img.
So "mkinitcpio -p vmlinuz-linux" must be right.

-p is for preset. You may want to consult mkinitcpio's man page to see where you can find a valid list of arguments to the -p option.

Ahh, I was to fast!
Maybe this is better "mkinitcpio -p /etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset"

In this case 'mkinitcpio -p linux' should work.

I guess -p needs the name of the file in /etc/mkinitcpio.d/ you want to use.

Either will work, the earlier option being a recent feature

linux 3.0 changes: http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/ … 21042.html

^^ It was a comment for the full path I guess.
