Having installed udev-054 (as well as 056) on Athlon64 I tried to make it work with genkernel-built gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.11-r4. I got Segmantation Fault before init (after udev start attempt). Grub entry for kernel: title=Gentoo udev root (hd0,4) kernel /kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r4 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/hda6 acpi=on vga=794 udev initrd /initrd-2.6.11-gentoo-r4 I'm trying to add udev056 to genkernel, I built static udev056, packed tarball similar to udev-039-x86_64.tar.bz, added udev-056-x86_64.tar.bz2 to /usr/share/genkernel/pkg/x86_64 and udev-056.tar.bz2 to /usr/share/genkernel/pkg Now I'm not getting segfault on bootup, however root partition (/dev/hda6) cannot be found then. I'll try to play with it a little bit more, and I'll pot a reply if I find a working solution.
Created attachment 54419 [details] corrected/recompiled file containing static udev for genkernel
It works now, with udev-039, tarbal for genkernel with recompiled/corrected static udev attached. Michal
