Hi,

I was told to post my query here just so it would be public/get archived 
by the search engines. I recently installed udev under 2.6.6, I originally 
had some problems with it, but as it turned out that part of it was an ID 
10 T error in that the default config used rules located in 
'/etc/udev/rules.d' and '/etc/udev/permissions.d' [im on slackware, i 
think the config/install mightve detected me as gentoo?], anyways my fault 
i shouldve noticied that when i edited the config file. Noticing that 
helped me figure out why udev refused to follow what I said to use for 
permissions. Now I have a new and seperate problem, when I enable udev to 
from boot, that is have it start on boot, I hang at:

echo 'udev: Creating initial udev devices nodes:'
... (comments removed here)
/sbin/udevstart

Interesting to note is that if I boot with it enabled, then run the rc 
script, everything works fine- and if my rules/permission files are misset 
in the udev.config file, then it boots fine [just doesnt set the correct 
perms to my devices]. Any idea's what would be causing this? I'm not sure 
what information you all would like me to include,

$ udevinfo -V
udevinfo, version 025

(I cant seem to figure out how to get the version from hotplug itself)
$ ls hot*
hotplug-2004_04_01.tar.bz2

hotplug-2004_04_01:
(...)
$

A thought off the top of my head is, I should be enabling this before 
hotplug correct? rc.udev (start_udev) is called from my rc.S [system init] 
scripts, just before I mount the other drives, just after sysfs is 
mounted, and then hotplug isnt started until all the way into my rc.local 
scripts; is that the correct order?

any other hints/ideas/etc?
