I recompiled the kernel with the following settings: CONFIG_DEVFS_FS=3Dy CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT=3Dy # CONFIG_DEVFS_DEBUG is not set As I read through the documentation (btw, devfs=3Dnomount is mentioned in configure help but not in Documentation/filesystems/devfs/boot-options) I got the understanding that this shouldn't make any difference to the system right? After booting with this kernel there were lots of proper devfs devices in my dmesg (host0/ide0... scsi0/...) however, the system didn't came up (couldn't mount rootfs). It didn't even work when I enabled CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT. I'm not sure whether this is a bug in mount/nomount of devfs or if it's somewhere my fault/setup (root on raid1, various lvm2 devices on raid1/0 devices) Any help would be greatly appreciated. --=20 Regards, Wiktor Wodecki --EVF5PPMfhYS0aIcm Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/IQ+u6SNaNRgsl4MRAmY7AJ9qXeV6ScYp8+0x7kURHbL/t4eLzACeKQDm xMj03W3jZxLlTGccm7SOmv0= =bzrB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --EVF5PPMfhYS0aIcm--
