My udev installation is missing /lib/udev/devices dir. Maybe that's also
distribution specific?

As a workaround I just modified my cleanerd starter script [1] to check
if /dev/root exists and, if it is missing, create proper /dev/root symlink
to ${TARGETDISK} before nilfs_cleanerd is started.

PS Is there some "proper" way to start nilfs_cleanerd on rootfs? Or
every way is good as far as it works fine? (my solution is missing the
gcpid=foo)
