+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #442827 +++ udevd should probably clean up or at least ignore things from /dev/.udev/queue/ that are there from before it started to avoid long timeouts when we run udev in the initrd and then kill it while preserving /dev (to allow the udevd from the actual filesystem to run) Encoding this sort of thing in the initrd's /init is almost certainly doomed to failure down the line when udev changes implementation details of how it works. --- Additional comment from harald on 2008-05-06 06:38:02 EDT --- * Tue May 06 2008 Harald Hoyer <harald> 120-5.20080421git - remove /dev/.udev in start_udev (bug #442827) http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=597426
