Description Rabbe Fogelholm 2005-08-08 01:19:18 UTC
In Code Listing 3.1 and 3.2 the --udev option is used. As I understand it this
option is on by default in genkernel 3.3.5 and possibly earlier versions.

Furhtermore, the --udev option is not explained in the document. Worse still,
the genkernel manpage says nothing either. By typing `genkernel --help' there is
at last something: You can say --no-udev and disable udev support.

My suggestion then is to just drop --udev from the code listings.

Reproducible: Always
