Hello everybody,
Since an update to gentoo-sources-3.7.9 my server is not booting anymore. I can failback to 3.6.11 which is no problem but I don't know what's wrong with the new kernel. All I can see in syslog is that amavisd has some problems to start:
| Code: |

But that's all I can see in syslog. After that I restarted the server in rescue mode, booted the old kernel (3.6.11) and could boot the system again. Any ideas?

aZZe ...
somewhat of a guess, DEVTMPFS isn't enabled in the kernel, and so device nodes are not created (udev, which you may have also updated, now requires DEVTMPFS).
best ... khay |
