From 726b15f64a10b2886c9b1bfe484f4cc7a71ea79e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yegor Yefremov Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2010 14:57:53 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Create menu entry to select device creation method Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now proposed: - static method uses device table as before - devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel - mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system and selects mdev itself for installation - udev method selects udev for installation All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care about /dev folder.
