Hi, |
| 18 |
Don't think it's a problem with udev-0.70, running it for a day or two. |
| 19 |
Maybe a hardware failure or try previous version (0.68), hope you have a |
| 20 |
binary package of it if you can't emerge it again. Useful sometimes. |
| 21 |
Boot with a LiveCD (gentoo) and re-emerge udev-0.68-rX or just install a |
| 22 |
binary package of it. If emerge/portage isn't working unpack it at / |
| 23 |
(root) dir, ignore warning about extra data at the end of archive. |
