Can't boot with root fs on usb hdd and usb support as modules. After udev starts system can't find any file. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. configure kernel usb support (*hci-hcd, usb-storage) as modules 2. use genkernel to compile kernel with initrd containing modules 3. put root fs on usb mass storage device 3. boot Actual Results: system hangs up on udev start it's possible to boot in interactive mode without udev; with usb support built into kernel all works

Is this still an issue with udev-171-r2?
(In reply to comment #3) > Is this still an issue with udev-171-r2? Yes. I tried to save stderr log of '/etc/init.d/udev start' to ATA drive, but got 'journal I/O commit error' and empty file.
(In reply to comment #4) Sorry, I reported about udev-171-r1, not udev-171-r2. Can't sync portage now.
I checked my kernel and was unable to find CONFIG_USB to set to m. Also, the information you posted does not include the version ofyour kernel, so I am unable to reproduce this. The kernel I am running is 2.6.38-gentoo-r6. Feel free to re-open if this is still an issue.
