[ANNOUNCE] updated hotplug++ and livecd/init: msg#00112t2.devel
Hi all, despite beeing in production use for way over a year now, Mikael found a not so nice bug in the livecd/init where, if no block device is attached to the system. the shell code would accidently iterate over all device nodes and disktype stalls on the first blocking (character) device. On the way to tracking this down hotplug++ received some more segmentaion fault protection. If you wonder why we still use hotplug++ in the times of u/dev, the answer is simple: calling modprobe directly form u/dev rules (yes we tried this) does not feature a blacklist, and we need one (e.g. for evbug and the various instable FB drivers).
