Started using it when I upgraded my kernel a couple of months ago, & it was
indeed one of those voila! thangs--I worried about it for a lot longer than I
took to set it up.

&gt; &gt; &gt; way to do this. Read <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=7316";>http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=7316</a> for
&gt; &gt; &gt; a good overview and basic principles.

&gt; &gt; I believe hotplug can be configured to deal with this as well.
&gt;
&gt; I didn't see how to do that with hotplug but without devfs.  I'd love to find
&gt; out as I have that same problem.
&gt;
&gt; I was disappointed to find that Mandrake 10, though it uses a 2.6 kernel,
&gt; does
&gt; not have devfs.  Does anyone know of a distibution that does have devfs?

&gt; I realized last night that all there is to using udevfs is installing
&gt; udev and hotplug. So, all I did was `apt-get install udev` (already had
&gt; hotplug installed) and rebooted, so that the devfs would be set up
&gt; cleanly. Voila! My system now has a much cleaner /dev directory.
