Hallo, Josef, Du meintest am 16.06.11: >>> Who the hell doesn't use udev? >> Me - p.e. >> "udev" may be interesting for desktop users, for multimedia >> computers.

But the developers seem to use only machines where "udev" runs. p.e. when testing the disks (I've told this bug about 1 year ago), p.e. with "/dev/btrfs-control". "btrfs-control" has to exist before btrfs is started, and there is neither a hint in the documentation nor a check. Viele Gruesse!
