    Subject2.6.0-test1 devfs question
    Hello,

    I'm currently running at 2.6.0-test1-mm2-O8 and I wanted to give devfs a
    shot. I recompiled the kernel with the following settings:
    CONFIG_DEVFS_FS=y
    CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT=y
    # CONFIG_DEVFS_DEBUG is not set

    As I read through the documentation (btw, devfs=nomount is mentioned in
    configure help but not in Documentation/filesystems/devfs/boot-options)
    I got the understanding that this shouldn't make any difference to the
    system right? After booting with this kernel there were lots of proper
    devfs devices in my dmesg (host0/ide0... scsi0/...) however, the system
    didn't came up (couldn't mount rootfs). It didn't even work when I
    enabled CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT.

    I'm not sure whether this is a bug in mount/nomount of devfs or if it's
    somewhere my fault/setup (root on raid1, various lvm2 devices on raid1/0
    devices)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
