Hello,

Everytime I start my Gentoo, I get a warning stating that my kernel has not been compiled with DEVFS support, and Gentoo prefers DEVFS. After 15 seconds or on keypressed, the system continues booting.

So, do I really need to recompile my kernel, which is 2.6.4, with DEVFS? Or can I just make the warning disappear?

Thanks a lot...

I have emerged udev, and it seems to be working OK. However, I still get this warning every time I boot up. Any ideas? Thanks.
