My goal is to get 3.18/3.19 working, but I really need working kernel to debug userland (and then use that userland to debug kernel). > Seriously, lots of things have changed, if you want to run a "new" > version of udev with an old kernel, try eudev, they have been attempting > to keep "legacy" support around in it, don't know how well it has been > working though, you really are on your own. I was hoping someone has devtmpfs patches I could just apply over 2.6.28 and get a working system? (Alternatively, I guess I should be able to do mknod manually. But unfortunately ALSA does not want to work when I do that... and I really need audio and modem support.)
