What Mark wrote you is golden. I might only add that if you put: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
>=sys-fs/udev-181 |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
into |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
/etc/portage/package.mask |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
you will have the present stable udev from *before* those weirdos starting |
| 25 |
messing it up, forcing systemd to take over udev. And, you won't be required |
| 26 |
to have an initrd image. (At sys-fs/udev-171-r9 as of Fri Dec 14 09:37:06 CST |
| 27 |
2012). And the only USE flag you *need* for that version of udev would be |
| 28 |
rule_generator. If you don't know that you need another, you probably don't. |
