Hi,
Do I need to backup the /dev directory when backing up my root fs?
FYI, I thought udev would populate it on boot up so I didn't backup the /dev
directory. However, I got
Warning: unable to open initial console
and the boot froze.
Going through all the possible reasons in http://kerneltrap.org/node/2205
did I realize that my /dev directory should be backed up & populated.
Please comment. Thanks.
