PATCH 1/1 udev broken, update and fix

/etc/udev/rules.d/ is empty with the current udev. It should be populated by default with one of the examples provided with udev. Also, /dev/pts should be mounted by default from the udev (S10udev) start script, otherwise 'dropbear' won't allow logins as it requires /dev/pts... (and this shouldn't be done automatically in fstab since udev creates a tmpfs which would mount over it).

Also, udev_root isn't configured by default in /etc/udev/udev.conf as the start script requires.

I've attached a patch which fixes those and goes ahead and bumps the version to 114 (from 101). Also, you can remove the 'udev-install.patch', as I've modified the makefile to do the same thing...

If you build udev, and then delete the source directory, and build udev again you will get multiple lines "udev_root=/dev" in the udev.conf.

It would be better to check if it is there and add it, if it is not.

Yep, you're right. I've attached a patch to fix that. I also fixed the udev-clean/dirclean issue if you didn't have volume_id and scsi_id selected.
