Hi there,
Quick question: As the later standard kernels don't support devfs any longer, is it still necessary to include the line
devfs=nomount
to your bootloader's config file to enable udev? Currently, my grub config looks like this:
title Arch Linux (2.6.14.4)
root (hd1,5)
kernel (hd1,0)/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/hdb6 ro vga=791
initrd (hd1,0)/initrd26.img
devfs=nomount

It doesn't seem to be necessary if you're using a kernel that doesn't support devfs.

it definitely isn't necessary
(your answer sounds not 100% sure, Jones, that's why i confirmed it)

It's necessary if you're using the 2.4 or 2.6.10 kernels, which still support devfs. Otherwise, no.

Thanks, that's all I needed to know.
