Subject: [PATCH] Enable devtmpfs by default
Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2012 11:54:14 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120723115414.724e0046@kryten> (raw)
udev now requires CONFIG_DEVTMPFS so make it default to y.
I noticed this when booting a ppc64 pseries_defconfig on Fedora 17
and it paniced because it couldn't mount the root device.
