However, all it does is generate udev events - which means that when udevstart exits, /dev isn't necessarily populated at all. You could do a hack like: - generate a list of all the events you're going to create - write a dev.d script that waits for the last one - while (1) sleep(500); - have that dev.d script kill udevstart But that's gross. Any better suggestions? Bill ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
