Take a look at the RC_DEVICES setting in /etc/conf.d/rc. If that says |
| 19 |
"auto" or "udev", then you are using udev and can safely remove devfs. |
| 20 |
Another way to check is to look at the output of "mount | grep /dev". |
| 21 |
Here is what it says for me: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid) |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
If you are still using devfs, this will probably say "type devfs". |
