Description Deji Akingunola 2007-07-11 23:48:10 UTC 
Description of problem: After updating to udev-113-3.fc8, external disk drives
cannot be mounted, the device nodes were not created. Downgrading to
udev-113-2.fc8 make things work again. My two internal disk (one SATA and the
other IDE disk) were of course mounted fine.

Comment 1 Harald Hoyer 2007-07-13 10:34:13 UTC 
does it work if you add "nomcollect" to the kernel command line with
udev-113-3.fc8 ??
Comment 2 Harald Hoyer 2007-07-13 10:34:48 UTC 
btw, which kind of external drive is this? USB?
Comment 3 Harald Hoyer 2007-07-13 10:38:03 UTC 
if booting with nomcollect does not work, try to change the line in
/etc/udev/rules.d/05-udev-early.rules from:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pnp", ATTR{id}=="?*", RUN+="modprobe_helper
pnp:d$attr{id}"
to:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pnp", RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'while read id; do
/sbin/modprobe pnp:d$$id; done < /sys/$devpath/id'"

and see if that works.
Comment 4 Deji Akingunola 2007-07-13 17:33:27 UTC 
Booting with 'nomcollect' works. Yes, it's a USB drive, but also has a firewire
interface. I have the same issue (booting without nomcollect) if I connect
through the firewire interface.
Comment 5 Deji Akingunola 2007-07-15 21:04:53 UTC 
Issue fixed in udev-113-4.fc8 (without needing to boot with nomcollect). Thanks.
