Probably out of sheer stupidity... Does it have something to do with |

the disk not being seen by fdisk? |

Actually it is something of a mute point now ... I decided to do a |
| 22 |
fresh install from (recent) gentoo minimal cd. I see already that at |
| 23 |

Do I need to do anything special to use udev? I see the install OS is |
| 26 |
using it. |
