Kernels don't get compiled and installed automatically. I bet you still run |
| 10 |
your old kernel which was configured for devfs. Your update probably unmerged |
| 11 |
"devfsd" or whatever the daemon was called. |

Now, how to plumb the hole? Boot from a liveCD, Mount your partitions the way |
| 14 |
your fstab would do it, chroot into your system that's on the harddrive, |
| 15 |
compile the kernel with udev, update /boot/grub/grub.conf) run "etc-update" |
| 16 |
and finally reboot with a bottle of cheap (Lundgren's your name?) aquavit at |
| 17 |
hand. ;-) |
