| |
Hello up there.
Recently I've reworked my system not to use udev, but use devtmpfs instead and discovered there is no /dev/root symlink in devtmpfs case.
My setup uses /dev/root early to know what is the boot device and then do some operations on it like checksumming, etc...
Now when /dev/root is gone the best workaround I could come up with is to grep /proc/partitions for '[hs]d[a-z]1' but it's ugly and will break when there are several block devices attached.
Is it somehow possible to add /dev/root to devtmpfs?
Thanks, Kirill
