udev wont create sda* nodes [SOLVED]

Message

quasar · Post by **quasar** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 1:37 am

I just changed the motherboard on my system. I booted to a gentoo install cd, chrooted to my root partition and recompiled my kernel with the driver for my new motherboard's sata dirvers. I then successfully booted from my root partition but I cannot mount any other partitions because there are no udev nodes for any of my partitions in /dev.

Code: Select all

ls /dev/s* -d
/dev/sg0 /dev/sg1 /dev/shm /dev/stderr /dev/stdin /dev/stdout

I don't really understand udev and I thought that nodes like this should be automagically created by udev. Is there a setting I need to change in udev or did I make a mistake configuring my kernel?

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep sd

Generally, nodes for supported hard drives should appear. A kernel configuration problem should have prevented you from mounting root, but root appears to be mounted. What is the output of emerge --pretend --verbose sys-fs/udev; emerge --info ; find /etc/udev/rules.d -type f -print | while read f; do echo $f; nl $f; echo; done; find /dev -type b -ls?

Do you have TMPFS enabled in your kernel?

Thanks krinn. The problem was that CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 was on.
