Subject: How to use udev ?
Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2004 04:33:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040412003325.A326@bedhost> (raw)

This message is intended primarily for the developer of udev but in 
case someone else has these same questions, I'm sending it to the 
mailing list.


#1
I went to 
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel & 
clicked on 
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=linux-hotplug-devel. 
I then received this message :

Is the mailing list new or misspelled ?


#2
I downloaded udev-024.tar.gz and while reading the README file : "Make 
sure that you have the latest version of the linux-hotplug scripts". I 
followed the given URL and found the following files:
diethotplug-x.x
fxload
hotplug
hotplug-base
hotplug-core
hotplug-fxload
hotplug-utils
sysutils
udev
+ a few documents
QUESTION: Which one of these files is the required scripts? and what 
are these files ? An index in this directory would be nice.


#3 - My main question
After I install udev, can I delete my /dev directory ? As long as I 
don't boot anything other than Linux-2.6.x.


#4
After udev is installed, will all programs then start looking for 
devices using udev or must the source code for those programs be 
changed specifically to use udev?
