Description Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-25 09:50:55 UTC
udev requires hotplug support. x86 handbook doesn't mention this. amd64 one does.

Comment 2 Max Cizauskas 2005-04-25 12:49:50 UTC
actually, neither manual for 2005.0 mentions the need for hotplug, but the depricated 2004.3 amd63 manual does.

please update all 2005.0 manuals with the information that udev requires hotplug support.
Comment 3 Shyam Mani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-09 05:23:49 UTC
Fixed the following in CVS

hb-install-alpha-kernel.xml
hb-install-amd64-kernel.xml
hb-install-hppa-kernel.xml
hb-install-ppc-kernel.xml
hb-install-ppc64-kernel.xml
hb-install-x86-kernel.xml

2005.0/hb-install-alpha-kernel.xml
2005.0/hb-install-amd64-kernel.xml
2005.0/hb-install-hppa-kernel.xml
2005.0/hb-install-ppc-kernel.xml
2005.0/hb-install-x86-kernel.xml

To show CONFIG_HOTPLUG is needed.

Thanks!
