Hi every body
I have run into a problem testing centos 5 on a FC5 host.
Steve has done a good job creating a Centos-5-template, and it works fine, but the mix of centos 5 and FC5 seems to cause a strange problem with udevd, that I really would like to understand.
As descriped in the centos-5-template thread, I have found a fix:
If I change the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit line
/sbin/start_udev
to
[ -f /sys/class/tty/console/uevent ] && /sbin/start_udev
in the centos 5 VPS and restart it, it seems to work.
If I run /sbin/start_udev manually it complains about "kernel too old for this udev". This seems strange since i'm running the newest el5 kernel (2.6.18-8.1.4.el5.028stab035.1).
As far as I know FC5 and FC6 uses the same udev setup, but I really thought that the VPS depend only on the kernel (and its private filesystem).
Any one knows of other host packages / set up that may cause this. I have checked /proc/user_beancounter for ressource problems - but none fails occurs.
Any hint is appreciated.
