24 So before 2.6.13 you were using devfs. Anyway, not really the main
25 problem. Have you tried upgrading your udev version? I am thinking
26 that using a newer version might resolve it. There are specific
27 versions of udev (unfortunately, I don't know which, as I have never
28 experienced the problem myself) where this appears to be happening for
29 some users.

31 Also, if you're using reiser4, it is known to not work with
32 catalyst/genkernel properly.
