OK so lots of updates (mostly kde 4.9.3) |
| 2 |
to several systems today. 2 or the 3 are fine |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
One got hosed. Error message upon reboot |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
config_devdmpfs=y is required in your kernel configuration |
| 7 |
for this version of udev to run successfully |
| 8 |
this requires immediate action |
| 9 |
mdev: sys/class no such file mdev |
| 10 |
Error udev-mount failed to start |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Error cannot start udev as udev-mo9unt would not start |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
So I booted the system with system rescue |
| 15 |
and got the partitions mounted |
| 16 |
(boot and /) / contains /var and /usr |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
looking into : /mnt/gentoo/new/usr/portage/sys-fs/udev |
| 19 |
I cannot tell what version of udev (udev mount) |
| 20 |
and others (udev-init-scipts ?) were installed |
| 21 |
and how to roll this back. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Any guidance on rolling back these errors is most |
| 24 |
welcome |
