There's another option, too: mdev, from busybox: |

It works well if you have a rather simple system. I.e., for me, headless |
| 13 |
machines (most of the time), PS/2 KB and mouse when not headless, one |
| 14 |
network interface (wired, no wifi), separate /usr, no disk encryption, and |
| 15 |
use static IP addresses (IPv4, IPv6). |

|

Additionally, there is a sep-usr flag to the busybox package that people |
| 18 |
running /usr on a different partition might want to look into. It installs |
| 19 |
a /ginit file that assists in getting /usr mounted early enough w/o a |
| 20 |
initramfs so that things don't break. Though, I am also not using that on |
| 21 |
my x86_64 box and it boots fine, so YMMV. |
