| Oh, what do you want with udev in that environment, it depends on
| sysfs and uevents wich are only in 2.6 kernels.
Chicken and egg, you know...
Switching from kernel 2.4 to 2.6 requires recent glibc. Recent glibc
requires 2.6 kernel. 2.6 kernel requires udev. Sure, I could download
some binary stuff from a distro, and try if it works, but old udev is
outdated, new 2.6 requires new udev, but new udev binary runs on new
glibc only. Problems everywhere. :-)
