I'm running Slackware, which uses BSD style init. Yes, the udev tarball contains a Red Hat specific init script. If you aren't useing Red Hat, then this script will probably not work for you, sorry. I have included a Linux From Scratch init script in the tarball, as someone using that distro provided it. If anyone has any other distro specific init script that works for udev, feel free to send it to me and I'll include it in the tree (I know lots of Debian users are also running into this problem.) thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
