Subject: [gentoo-user] EVMS root partition and udev, anyone?

1 Has anyone gotten their system to boot with an evms root volume on a
2 purely udev system? If so, can you tell me how you did it.

4 The problem I am having is the initrd from the evms site expects a
5 kernel that understands devfs. The problem I'm having with genkernel
6 --evms2 is that it complains that it cannot find /dev/evms/root. When I
7 drop into the shell from this point, there is nothing except /dev/evms/dm.
8
9 When I boot with livecd and run evms_activate...all my /dev/evms/root,
10 boot, home, usr, etc show up.
11
12 I have scoured the web and I am at a loss. I really want to use evms,
13 but it looks like I'm going to have to punt on this.

15 Cheers,
