Hello,
I know about the devlabel messages in /var/log/messages ; from where do they
stem ?
; I read about it in the author website (http://www.lerhaupt.com/linux.html)
but there was very little info , amd also the devlabel tar.gz does not
contain much.
I understood that it has to do with symbolic links.
It is installed on my Linux platform (as part of the Linux installation );
Now , I wat to know what is the origin of the devlabel messages in the
log file ?
These messages consist the following text : "devlabel: devlabel service
started/restarted"
I had searched under the 2.4.20-8 sources for "devlabel" and could not fnd
anything.
what is the kermel origin of these devlabel messages ?
regards,
john

There is no kernel orgin of these messages. The devlabel program is
being run from the hotplug scripts, which run when a device is plugged
in or removed from the system. All in userspace.
Hope this helps,
