Right, this should be fixed. I'll wait for a decision regarding the
tdb code. If the multi-file-db will work well for the thousands of
disks setup, all this stuff will go anyway.
udev_log="no" in /etc/udev/udev.conf should fix that in the meantime
for users running into trouble with that.
Thanks,
Kay
