[ARMedslack] Updating to 14.0 with kernel 2.6.38

[Davide]

Ok it appears that a new package is mandatory for udev to do it's work.
Actually I think it's mandatory for modprobe which in turn is mandatory for udev.

Manually installing kmod package put things right.
If I'd listened to slackpkg man page better by doing first 

slackpkg install-new
probably things would have worked better.

Sorry for making a racket ... and hope this can save trouble to other people updating.
David

The odd thing is that I actually was already 14.0 but from a previous current.

Indeed I had a few problems with udev and gnutls. It also took forever to get a login prompt (and not sure if CTRL^D/C helped killing something that was not working).

Udev stopped working properly and I hadto load manually usb networking interface. I'm sure I;ll have more trouble ahead for this.

While doing slackpkg 

upgrade n 

gnutl came before wget and then wget stopped working ... this stopped slackpkg from downloading anything !!!!

Thankgod scp still worked and I was able to get the new whet installed to go on with the upgrade process.

As soon as I'm done with the upgrading I'll try posting the udev error messages and see if anyone can help me put it right.

Regards
David

I'm thinking of updating to 14.0  on my AC100 (that unfortunately still runs on ubuntu based kernel ... that I learn is actually a fork of chromeos kernel) ...
Will things like udev break un kernel 2.6.28 ? 

Anyone think of anything else I should watcout for ?

Regards
David
