Unfortunately, it isn't going to be as simple as switching away from |
| 10 |
udev. This move is going to move all software from /bin, /sbin and /lib |
| 11 |
to /usr/bin and /usr/lib. The end result is going to be that regardless |
| 12 |
of whether you are using mdev or udev you will have to use an initramfs |
| 13 |
if /usr is on a separate partition. |
