On arm, ads_cf doesn't currently use udev in d-i, but I'm probably going to change that, and ads_cf shouldn't hold up any ongoing progress in d-i anyway. AFAIK that's the last user of userdevfs. > + mkdir -p /dev/.static/dev /dev/static is supposed to be mode 700. udev will currently fix up the existing permissions when it's installed, but to avoid subtly breaking if udev's postinst changed, I'd make it mode 700 to start with. I wonder if we need to include this directory in /dev at all. udev should create it, and migrate devices to it, if it doesn't already exist. -- see shy jo
